mouse cursor can't move in the direction where the VM window is stepping outside the screen

Reported by: Mihai Hanor Owned by:
Component: other Version: VirtualBox 3.1.4

Guest type: Windows Host type: Windows

Description

I can reproduce this on a XP SP3 32 bit host, using 2 guests:

  1. XP SP3 32 bit, VT-X and NX enabled; 2D,3D enabled, GA installed in safe mode
  1. live disto SLAX 6.1.2, no NX, no VT-X, no usb, no audio, no network, no 2D&3D acceleration, no GA; text mode session, gpm enabled (mouse server)

The cursor is having very hard time moving torward the VM window's edge(s) that are outside the visible screen. Keyboard&mouse input must be captured.

VB 3.1.6 is still affected, the cursor is having very hard time moving torward the VM window's edge(s) that are stepping outside the visible screen.
Mouse input must be captured, mouse integration must be disabled.

the bug is still present in VB 3.2.0 beta1

VB 3.2.4 comes with no change

I was about to file a bug for this, but finally found this one while searching the site. I've noticed this long ago, I confirm that if you move the VM's window slightly outside the screen the mouse pointer cant be moved over a certain invisible border so you have to move the virtual machine's window to fit inside your screen to be able to work with it, tested in 3.2.4.

VB 4.0 beta1 seems to be free of this minor bug

You can close this ticket. VB 4.0.6 (win32) is also free of this bug.
