#17430 new defect

Invisible mouse pointer with remote control. (Linux host)

Reported by: Gurkensalat Owned by:
Component: other Version: VirtualBox 5.2.4
Keywords: mouse vnc TeamViewer Cc:
Guest type: all Host type: Linux

Description

When I try to remote control a virtual machine with TeamViewer or vnc the Mouse pointer of the "supporter" is not shown in the virtual machine.
The "local" mouse pointer of the virtual machine remains where it was left. The remote Pointer is invisible.

TeamViewer as well as vnc do work without restrictions, only the remote mouse is invisible in the virtual machine.

The local mouse pointer reflects the state of the remote pointer (hand, arrow, busy, ...) but does not move from the position where it was left by the local user.

I tried Debian stretch (KDE) and Linux Mint (Cinnamon) as host and Windows and Debian as guest.

In the Windows guest I tried no 3d-acceleration, Direct3D and WDDM with no avail.

The host is equipped with a Intel i3-6100 CPU and uses the builtin Intel graphics.

As pointed out over IRC, disabling mouse integration on the guest, fixes the issue...
