Description David Jaša 2012-10-04 15:55:46 UTC

qxl driver is sometimes able to provide client mouse without agent cooperation so this bug should be handled there, too

xorg-x11-drv-qxl-0.1.0-2.el6


+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #863179 +++

Description of problem:
switch to relative mouse movement if app within a guest grabs cursor

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spice-vdagent-0.12.0-1

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. make sure that client mouse by agent is in use
2. open a cursor-grabbing app in a guest (another spice-client with server mouse mode, openarena**, ...)
3. grab the cursor
  
Actual results:
the mouse continues to be in absolute mode, making it unusable in both app that grabbed cursor and the rest of the guest

Expected results:
the mouse is switched to relative input mode once an app grabs the cursor and back to absolute when the app releases it

Additional info:
** openarena needs the check for DRI removed in startup script

This is incorrect, there are 2 ways to get an absolute input devica and thus
client-mouse mode without using the agent:
1) The vm is configured with a virtual usb tablet
2) The xorg-x11-drv-vmmouse driver is installed inside the guest

Neither is under control of the qxl driver.
