Description
I've observed this on Debian Etch 64-bit guest running on Ubuntu 8.04 64-bit host; VirtualBox 2.0.2.
With *some* guest screen resolutions (not all) the mouse seems to be drawn in the wrong location. Near the top of the screen, the mouse is OK. But as the mouse progresses through the Y axis towards the bottom of the screen, an offset appears between the drawn mouse and where X think the mouse is located. Near the bottom of the screen, I've seen a difference of maybe 100 pixels between the drawn mouse and where X thinks the mouse is located.
This is very obvious when dragging a window towards the bottom of the screen, or trying to click on a button located near the bottom of the screen. End result is you must click anywhere between 50 to 100 pixels "higher" than where you actually want to click.
Example resolution (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) where this problem does not happen: 1280x1024
Example resolutions where this problem occurs: 1400x940, 1152x864, 1200x950
Workaround: if I disable mouse integration then the mouse works fine.
