To handle switching of my keyboard and mouse between host and guest I use two binaries (which are just bash scripts) located in `/usr/bin/`...

I use both as I need to use host & guest at the same time (eg I also have separate monitors for host & guest). So two mouses/keyboards for simultaneous use (2nd kb is a small 60% keyboard to save desk space ;-) and a matrix kvm switch to be able to switch primary monitors + usb devices. On 19/1

[vfio-users] Ongoing mouse issues

I have a Win10 VM used almost exclusively for gaming, so mouse performance is important. The default PS/2 mouse shows frequent lagging and occasionally freezes completely, requiring a VM reboot to recover. The same happens with an added "Generic USB Mouse". If I use a virtio trackpad instead, I don
