Xen users - Sep 2006 - summagraphics VNC fix

Hey everyone,
 
 So I followed the online directions for installing the summagraphics tablet
support on a Xen Windows XP guest.  However, after rebooting the VNC mouse still
is not tracking properly.  The XP guest pops up a "Error: tablet device not
found" message as well.
 
 Has anyone had any success getting the VNC pointer to track properly
(I''ve also tried usbdevice=''mouse'').  Do these
solutions actually work?  I''m running Xen3.0.2 stable.  Thanks!
 
 ~Dave

Hi David,

 

I am not so sure but I remember USB supporting is later than 3.0.2. 

 

If you can try latest xen-unstable, I think following setting can resolve your
mouse moving issue in Windows.

usb=1

usbmouse=’tablet’

I don''t know about your problem with the tablet device, but a trick to 
make the normal mouse work significantly better is if you go into the 
mouse options in control panel and turn off ''Enhance pointer
precision''.
By doing that you''ll find it is much easier to move it about and get it
where you want...
