Package: xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse Version: 1:12.6.5-2 Tags: patch User: ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Usertags: origin-ubuntu lucid ubuntu-patch Hello! vmmouse currently does not work out of the box any more, since X.org does not use hal any more for detecting input devices. I created an udev rule and tested it in both kvm (with vmmouse driver) as well as real iron (confirmed that it doesn't apply there), works well. debdiff attached, which also cares about removing the hal bits and triggering udev. I also sent the rule upstream: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26910 Thanks, Martin -- Martin Pitt | http://www.piware.de Ubuntu Developer (www.ubuntu.com) | Debian Developer (www.debian.org)
