Hello all,

I have installed the latest Virtualbox 3.0.12 on my experimental Arch
Linux server in order to virtualize some other Linux desktops and
deliver them via RDP.
I am using headless mode, since Arch Linux host has no X server installed.

Here are the steps of the VM creation:

# VBoxManage createvm --name fedora12 --register
# VBoxManage modifyvm fedora12 --memory 1024 --acpi on --boot1 dvd --nic
intnet
# VBoxManage openmedium dvd /path/to/iso
# VBoxManage --dvd /full/path/to/iso
# VBoxHeadless --startvm fedora12

RDP Access:

# rdesktop-vrdp -r usb -a 16 -N ipaddress

And when the live system boots, I get the full live linux desktop, but I
am not able to move with the mouse at all.(Thinkpad TrackPoint and USB
Mouse)
Keyboard works.

I tried Fedora 12 live, Ubuntu Karmic and Incognito 2007 (gentoo
security distribution) and every case preserved the same problem.

Interesting thing is that when I mount Fedora-12-i386-DVD.iso (just
installation ISO, no live) mouse is quite usable and I'm able to move
through the graphic installation.

Should I report it as a bug?

Thanks in advance.

~ Daniel.
