I've added usb=1 and usbdevice='tablet' to my fedora 8 HVM config file,
but the mouse seems to act exactly the same way (however the qemu tablet
device does show up in the /proc input device description, so it is getting
defined).
I suspect I need to do something to explicitly fix the xorg.conf file to
use the evdev driver (or whatever it is called) and absolute cursor
positioning, but I am having a heck of a time find any example xorg.conf
file to try.
Is it actually supposed to be possible to make this work these days?
Anyone have a working xorg.conf from a fedora 8 HVM that demonstrates
correct mouse tracking in the vnc console?
Section "InputDevice"
Name "Mouse0"
Driver "evdev"
Option "Name" "QEMU 0.8.2 QEMU USB Tablet"
Option "Mode" "Absolute"
EndSection
And make sure Mouse0 is listed as your core pointer in the ServerLayout
section.
The 'Name' field there may need to be changed - I can't remember what name
the F8 Xen QEMU exports. This example was from original F7. Look in the
/proc/bus/input/devices file for actual name.
