Did you bisect qemu or qemu-kvm?

That's a merge. Can you dig into the merged patches to find the one that
resolved the grabbing issue? Might be 21635e121a. Then that can be
backported while bisecting the tree for the other issue.

If you go full-screen there is constant grabbing. But I do not see the
correlation with the update rate when in windowed mode.

I still cannot follow, specifically as I have XP with tablet running
here. Haven't noticed any problems so far, just rechecked against
qemu-kvm head.
