Description diolu 2012-08-27 14:26:51 UTC

There is a problem when running Linux (Archlinux) as guest inside virtualbox (Windows XP as host). The mouse can behave erratically (but the bug is not always reproducible). I had previously reported this bug in the archlinux bug tracker ( https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/30700 ). According to Sébastien Luttringer of Archlinux this is due to a race condition on detection of the mouse status by udev in the guest.

Version: systemd-tools 188

This is not exactly what I said. Please refer to the previous archlinux bug report for more detail.

The downstream bug appears closed, so let's close this one too.
