This not only affects the live cds but also an installation from dvd.
Sure.
First the driver is set to "mouse" which doesn't activate the seamless mouse integration
Of course. Because vboxmouse is broken we cannot make it the default any longer.
and manually setting it to "vboxmouse" activates seamless mousing but disables mouse clicks, so the suggested workaround doesn't work.
Obviously you didn't understand the workaround, which exchanges vboxmouse with mouse and not the other way round!
The strange thing is that I had it working just fine in an installation that went from late alpha or early beta through betas & rc till 11.2 alpha0.
You would have been the only one, for whom this driver ever worked on openSUSE 11.1 Alpha/Beta.
Only after reinstalling from 11.1 GM I wasn't able to get it working again.
I tried with VirtualBox 2.0.6 & 2.1 (binary editions).
I suggest to provide an update for the virtualbox package, which applies the workaround in it's %post. Only update are affected here. No new installations. Even better would be to finally fix the vboxmouse driver. Do we have any developer contacts to virtualbox? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
