'''Important change''':
Note that if the new '''linux 4.1''' vmmouse functionality is used, the
user-space xf86-input-vmmouse driver '''can be skipped'''. Distros that
want
to keep the xf86-input-vmmouse driver as a backup should '''not use any
version prior to 13.0.99''' since those versions would compete with the
in-kernel vmmouse driver for mouse input.

This release is intended for general distro inclusion, testing has been
performed on various linux distros, FreeBSD 10.1 and Solaris 11.2.
This release contains a number of build fixes and also changes to deal
with improved vmmouse port security and backoff if a vmmouse kernel
module is encountered. An additional dependency on libudev is introduced
on linux.
Note that if the new linux 4.1 vmmouse functionality is used, the
user-space xf86-input-vmmouse driver can be skipped. Distros that want
to keep the xf86-input-vmmouse driver as a backup should *not* use any
version prior to 13.0.99 since those versions would compete with the
in-kernel vmmouse driver for mouse input.
