I went on to compile dgibson's rep which includes that commit. But the issue remains. I normally use -usb-mouse -usb-kbd in the command line, as these work for Mac OS 9.x up to 10.5. Using -usb-tablet allows the mouse to travel outside the GUI and seems to circumvent the issue in OSX guests, but Mac OS 9.x guests do not work with -usb-tablet. Best, Howard
