[Bug 855616] New: VNC cursor offset during installation (kvm guest)
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=855616 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=855616#c0 Summary: VNC cursor offset during installation (kvm guest) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 13.1 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: yast2-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: abergmann@suse.com QAContact: jsrain@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- openSUSE 13.1 installation reacts differently to openSUSE 12.3 when accessed over KVM VNC. The cursor inside the VNC window in 13.1 is moving faster then the mouse cursor of the VNC client system. This makes it hard to click the right buttons during installation. This behavior was different in 12.3. I stumbled over this during installation of 2 KVM clients. How to reproduce: 1. Start KVM client with openSUS-12.3 DVD as boot medium. 2. Connect to that guest system via VNC and wait for the GUI to start. i.e. Check VNC port: #> virsh dumpxml <guest id> | grep vnc <graphics type='vnc' port='5901' autoport='yes' listen='0.0.0.0'> #> vncviewer 0:5901 3. Start KVM client with openSUSE-13.1 DVD as boot medium. 4. Connect to that guest system via VNC and wait for the GUI to start. Same procedure as step 2. Just move the cursor inside the VNC client window around and you should see the differences. -- 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.

The reason is that vmmouse driver is used in 12.3, but regular evdev is used in 13.1. (You can check if this is the case for you too, you can attach Xorg log.) If I remember correctly vmmouse should be used in KVM if it is not in secure boot environment. Note that this doesn't seem to be VNC related. VNC is between the viewer and the qemu. The problem is rather between qemu and the virtual machine. -- 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.

If I remember correctly vmmouse should be used in KVM if it is not in secure boot environment.
Why and how do we handle this? Anyway we need the X logfile. -- 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.
