Qemu: Tries to emulate a USB-tablet (at least in a windows guest). Of course, Windows needs it drivers available for this and Qemu does not use guest-additons. So I just use the keystrokes to toggle mouse capture. This is certainly OK. VBox: Also has keystrokes. Guest additions not available for Win98, but sometimes, low and behold, quite spontaneously, friendly mouse capture is working without even asking. Might stop during the session but works at least for a while. I cannot reproduce this, it just happens. In the Einstein game, mouse over the game's window is captured (or more accurately, followed). When the mouse leaves the window, the "capture" ceases. My suggestion (I have not looked at the code) is that VBox might work similarly, without keyboard toggles or dependence on guest-additions. _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list [email protected] http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
