Hi,IMHO the biggest obstacle to inclusion in mainline QEmu is that the mouse support is rather flakey: You have to disable mouse acceleration of the guest OS. I had that cunning plan to write a virtual Wacom tablet, but I just don't find the time.I thought Anthony Liguori had already written a Wacom tablet emulator for QEMU and that worked fine except it supports only one button. I don't remember if this support was complete and I don't have a link to the patch.
No, it supports all three. Works quite well for new X drivers. If you search the wacom-devel archives you'll find a link to the docs for the Wacom driver.
It does kind of suck though that you have to manually configure your X server. I looked at a number of tablets and they all seem to be serial or undocumented.

With this you don't need to disable mouse acceleration in the guest OS because it makes no sense to accelerate a tablet. On the other hand writing a guest-side driver for QEMU would leave room for further improvements like hiding/showing or grabbing/releasing the mouse at specific moments. Or, possibly reusing tools from Win4Lin or VMtools from VMware.Ciao, Dscho _______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list address@hidden http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel-- balrog 2oo6 Dear Outlook users: Please remove me from your address books http://www.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=03/08/21/143258------------------------------------------------------------------------_______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list address@hidden http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
