Mouse problems with Spice remote-viewer - usb-tablet not working; works perfectly with libvirt

jpmorrison commented 2 years ago

Spice remote-viewer + usb-tablet does not work with quickemu or Docker-OSX: workaround: use usb-mouse

Spice works perfectly (seamless mouse integration) with libvirt config

Qemu

quickemu: QEMU emulator version 6.0.0 (Debian 1:6.0+dfsg-2expubuntu1~focal1.0)
Docker-OSX: QEMU emulator version 6.1.0 (arch linux)

Spice

Ubuntu/Virtual Machine Manager 7.0
Windows VirtViewer v10.0-256
