J ___ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel The patch works perfectly here (qemu 0.8.1 on Windows XP host). Without it I always get the invisible wall if I leave mousegrab and enter it again close to a window border. It seems to me that SDL only reports pointer-deltas based on the movement of its own pointer (which is set invisible) and when this invisible pointer hits the window border you therefor only get delta=0 even if the guest OS pointer is still somewhere in midscreen. (Setting the SDL pointer always visible gives a good illustration of what is going on.) The guest-OS rather expects raw mouse movement deltas, than the filtered SDL-pointer deltas. Somehow the patch seems to solve this, but I can't say that I understand how (not having looked into the SDL source code).

I'll add my voice to this - with WinXP and Win2000 guests, without this patch they were virtually unusable. They work fine with it. -- -- Michael Soruk McConnell Eridani Star System MailStripper - http://www.MailStripper.eu/ Mail Me Anywhere - http://www.mailmeanywhere.com/ ___ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel

What functionality are you referring to? Regards, Anthony Liguori I liked the functionality offered by the libvncserver patch better but can no longer apply that. Is someone going to take up adding the missing pieces to VNC functionality? The suggested patch in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2006-05/msg00142.html might help here, too.
