Hi All,
I am migrating from Virtual Box on my old server (CentOS 5.6 x32) to
KVM on
my new server (SL6.1 x64).
Virtual box has a collection of drivers to assist the guest called
"Guest Additions". These drives give you shared clipboard
and shared mouse, among other things.
Question: does KVM have a similar package of guest drivers?
I am specifically looking for mouse sharing and shared clipboard.
I am not sure if I need a special video driver as well.
Many thanks,

p.s. be really cool if all that stuff were built in
Hi,
Just out of curiosity why are you making the move from VB to KVM ?
I currently make use of VB for most of my OS testing, but KVM looks
like it has a bright future.
Cheers

Hi Paul,
I made the mistake of using VB with an enterprise level database and
VB corrupted the database. The customer, my largest customer,
eventually fired me over it. VB is a toy. I should have known better.
KVM, on the other hand, has Red Hat behind it. I can not see the issues
I have/had with VB not being fixed instantly. In my experience, Oracle
could care less.
