I did some quick looking around on SDL's site and came aross a FAQ about DGA mouse support, http://www.libsdl.org/faq.php?action=listentries&category=3#28 On a whim, I decided to give this a shot. I ran
# export SDL_VIDEO_X11_DGAMOUSE=0 before running qemu and it worked like a charm. I'm not quite sure what DGA Mouse Support is, but it would appear that disabling it fixes my problems with the mouse acting funny. I just thought someone might like to know. I have a thread on the forms that I'll post this to as well. Perhaps it'll help someone. Jason > Jason, > > I had this problem once. It turned out to be an SDL problem.
