I have spotted another couple of bugs when testing with xl on 4.1.0-rc and
a xen/next-2.6.38 based kernel.

If I set vfb = [ 'sdl' ] in the configuration file, then I can type in the
window produced, but the mouse doesn't work (the pointer stays fixed in
the middle of the window). Alao clicking on the window doesn't trigger the "grab keyboard and mouse" mode, though I can manually trigger it and leave
it using the ctrl-alt key combination.

... I cannot reproduce the second one
(however I am using X remoting because I don't have an X server on my
testbox).

Thanks for the first fix. The mouse problem is reproducible over remote X
(ssh -X) and if I use vnc rather than sdl. Do you have any idea how we
might debug this?

Does the mouse work if you just have the console and gpm in the guest?
What is the output of "xenstore-ls /local/domain/$DOMID/device/vkbd"?

The mouse mostly works with a console and gpm - I get a reverse video cursor which will move, cut and paste, though it isn't quite in step with where the pointer would be, eg. if I enter the window from the bottom the cursor appears more to the right than it should be.

Sorry, I forgot to add the output from
xenstore-ls /local/domain/6/device/vkbd/0
which is
backend = "/local/domain/0/backend/vkbd/6/0"
backend-id = "0"
state = "4"
page-ref = "284456"
event-channel = "14"
request-abs-pointer = "1"
