Anthony,

I dont exactly know what SDL is.

All I know is when I am at my desk everything is working fine...
Then I go home and use "vncviewer machine" to remote into my desktop.
Everything runs normal of course but when I select my minimized kvm session,
it maximizes but I cannot click in the XP session to give it focus. All
I get is the
little square mouse pointer like you get when you move the mouse off the
kvm window
and kvm has grabbed the mouse. I cannot ever select anything in the XP
window accessing my
machine with vncviewer.

I am using centos 5.1 and now kvm-59.
