Re: [Qemu-devel] VNC patch status?

2005-10-09 Thread Rui Carmo

Thanks, I'll look into CVS.

My primary use for it is being able to access Linux VM consoles -   
although I'm curious as to the mouse issues other folk are mentioning  
- is it a Win98 specific issue? (the only Windows I run inside QEMU  
is XP, and I use RDP to reach that...)

I thought the problem only occurred when mouse pointer acceleration was
enabled...

... which is the default almost everywhere. And most of the time, they 
make it really difficult for regular users to change that.

[Qemu-devel] VNC patch status?

2005-10-08 Thread Rui Carmo

Hello,

I was wondering about the status of the VNC patch that was available  
a few months back (i.e., whether it's still useful for 0.7.2) and  
whether or not it was being considered for inclusion in the main  
source tree.

Am I missing something? I don't see it.

Furthermore, the main problem still prevails: There is no sane way to get 
the mouse running yet. I played around with a tablet patch someone sent 
me, but could not get it to run with a Win98 guest. Since this is my main 
use for qemu+vnc, I need a solution for this case.

I gave up and installed VNC in the guest OS, and then used '-redir'. But
GUI/mouse responsiveness seemed pretty slow that way.

I think the best solution would be for someone to write a special qemu mouse
driver for windows.

This is where win4lin-pro comes into its own.  They have grafted on their own graphics driver and 
load a little applet that keeps the mouse perfectly synchronised. It works well over vnc. (or did in 
any case, I have not booted it for quite a while)
