RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Alon Levy 2011-07-31 15:52:02 UTC
Created attachment 516022 [details]
fix by passing red_dispatcher surface_create by value

Description of problem:
When not using an agent and using a tablet the resolution set after a primary creation can be wrong. This results in a non-functioning pointer.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start a windows vm with the newest driver (0.1-8), tablet (-usb -usbtablet) and no vdagent (no virtio-serial) and a qxl device (-vga qxl)
2. change resolution repeatedly (start a cmd screen, do alt-enter
3. Either after boot or after a few rounds of 2. you will no longer be able to move the pointer anywhere (the actual limits to the pointer will be 16 on at least one axis)

Actual results:
pointer stops working

Expected results:
pointer should work
