Oh, I didn't neccessarily mean that we'd need the ability to add a ps/2 keyboard via -device. I meant that there just need to be able to add /some/ kind of keyboard. eg we have a usb-kbd device that could potentially fill that role. Likewise for mouse pointer. Serial ports, etc. Regards, Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :| -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
