           Summary: [XEN-HVM] broken ps/2 mouse driver on Linux HVM guests
           Product: Xen

          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P2
         Component: HVM
        AssignedTo: xen-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Problem description:

After installing a Linux HVM guest (any) and trying to login to through the
graphical interface, the mouse is all over the place. It is very accelerated
and a person cannot accomplish anything. You cannot even reboot the guest os by
using the mouse. It is 100% unusable.

In contrast, When booting with a Windows XP HVM guest, the mouse is offset from
the user pointer but it works fine like that. The mouse in this case is 100%
usable.

So, this is a problem with Linux HVM guests for sure.
