Re: Mouse not sync'd with pointer



The host OS is Windows-XP on a Dell Latitude D630, the Guest OS is Debian Linux (Lenny).  The mouse works find in windows, when I move into the Linux Window the pointer is not at the mouse coordinates.  VMWare tools are not installed on the guest.

Regards,
Bob Patton
