Sorry, it should state:

"the mouse arrow (in-screen pointer) doesn't follow mouse movement"

Ticket #8640 is a duplicate of this one. Quote:

Host: Windows 7, x64, VBox 4.0.4 (and 4.0.0)

Guest: Linux - SLES 11 SP1 (32+64bit, both KDE and GNOME)

After installing GA on SLES 11 guest, Xorg mouse became unresponsive.

Any news on this one ?

comment:7 Changed 12 years ago by michael

Just testing the distribution (and a fix) now. The problem seems to be that SLES (and probably SLED too) 11 SP 1 ship X.Org Server 1.6.5, but unlike openSUSE with the same version they still do not enable input device autodetection.

I hope that this Additions test build (see here) will fix this:

  1. Yes, thanks, mouse problem fixed.
  1. Detected Regression: "Guest Control Execute" now fails. Worked with 4.0.4.

VBoxManage --nologo guestcontrol execute "SLES 11 32-bit" "/bin/uname" --arguments "-a" --username root --password 123456 --wait-for stdout

  1. Found new problem: 3D Acceleration doesn't installs. (it still shows Mesa Software Rasterizer)

Should I open new bugs for 2 & 3 ?
