no mouse

no mouse

[aGaTHoS]

CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4800+
kvm version: 62
kernel: 2.6.23-hardened-r7 (with gentoo standard and hardened patches, it is anyway compiled without ssp and pie)
arch: x86_64
guest OS: various, windows XP and various linux livecds
command line:

 1 (windows) # kvm -hda /root/kvm/windows.img -m 192 -localtime -k es -net nic -net tap,script=/etc/kvm/br1

 2 (livecd f.e puppy) # kvm -hda /root/kvm/live.img -cdrom /home/agathos/data/downloads/puppy-3.01-seamonkey.iso -boot d -name live -m 192 -localtime -k es -std-vga -net nic -net tap,script=/etc/kvm/br1

with -no-kvm : it crashes after entering command

description of the bug:
	I can remember the exact version since the problem occurs, but with the last versions of kvm I have no mouse, it appears when starting windows or X in linux and when I try to move it, simply deappears. I've also tried with "-usb -usbdevice mouse" with the same result.

Can you bisec the kvm version that did work?

Besides that you can also try working with vmmouse.

Hi,

I was able to reproduce the problem on an AMD machine (but not on an Intel machine).
(kvm-62, AMD, x86_64, fedora 7, puppy linux live guest)

Adding '-no-kvm' to the command line just made things slower (no crush).
Adding '-no-acpi' or '-clock unix' seems to workaround the mouse problem.

Uri.

With those options I still have the same problem, and with -no-kvm it always crashes for me at least.
