I hope there are some QEMU experts on this list. I am running QEMU under Tumbleweed and have 3 other distros installed. The one common thing among the three...if I leave their desktops untouched for 10 or 15 minutes, my keyboard gets forgotten by QEMU. When I come back to the virtual machine, the keyboard is completely unresponsive and the machine will have to be shutdown and re-run to get it back. The mouse however continues to work. All three other distros have the identical PROBLEM so it's to connected to them. I am running a wireless (USB) Logitech keyboard and mouse combo which, outside of QEMU never gives me problems. I have googled the problem several times recently but that proved fruitless. Hope someone here has a solution or a suggestion. Thanks

This sounds form me to be a upstream qemu problem if its on different distro's the same. you should try the qemu list: qemu-discuss@nongnu.org i never had this problem with classic keyboards. have you tried to use a "normal" usb or keyboard-plug keboard? you should test this first. simoN -- www.becherer.de

I will try with a regular keyboard plugged in. Thank you. I will also try the list. Frank
