Public bug reported:

Hello,

System Specs

Host:
--------
Slackware 14.1 x86_64
Openbox 3.5.2
tint2 panel (svn version)
Nvidia GTX660M
nvidia-driver-346.35
Screen: 17" @1920x1080@60Hz

Guest
---------
Slackware 14.1 x86_64
XFce 4.10
Screen 17" @1920x1080
xf86-video-vmware 13.0.1

QEMU 2.2.1

I start Slackware in QEMU using 'Zoom To Fit' when it first boots up and
I log into X, at this point I notice the mouse shows with 2 pointers and
when I move the mouse around, shows as trails, but it's actually a
second pointer that appears under the first.

If I use 'Ctrl Alt F' and go into full screen mode the mouse gets
corrected and only appears as one pointer and no pointer under the
second one when moving around. So this mouse problem only appears the
first time I log into X with 'Zoom To Fit'.

Also if log in instead as 'Full Screen' I do not see the issue, as well
as if I log in 'Full Screen' and change back to 'Zoom To Fit' it does
not happen.

I also noticed that if I scroll with the mouse wheel quickly, as an
example, in any application and wanting to move quickly around, the
mouse ends up moving me instead to another virtual desktop, XFce by
default uses 4. If I just scroll slowly nothing happens, it's only when
moving the mouse wheel quickly that the focus gets taken off the
application for some reason and put on the desktop and moves you.

Command line options:
--------------------------------
qemu-system-x86_64 -rtc base=localtime Slackware\ 14.1\ x64.img -m 4096 --enable-kvm -smp 2 -vga vmware -usbdevice tablet

I wanted to use -usbdevice tablet to have seamless mouse movement back
and forth from Host to Guest without having to Grab...

If I remove '-usbdevice tablet' and log into X the frst time as 'Zoom To
Fit' I see two mouse pointers, but as soon as I click the desktop and
the mouse is grabbed the second one goes away and when I move the mouse
there is only one pointer.

Also without the option '-usbdevice tablet' and I move the scroll wheel
quickly the mouse stays focused on the application and it doesn't move
the desktop.

Please see the attached screen shots, qemu_1.jpg shows 2 mouse pointers
when I first log into X as 'Zoom To Fit', and qemu_2.jpg shows when I'm
staying in 'Zoom To Fit' mode and moving the mouse around, with a
pointer under the pointer.
