Description Pavel Grunt 2016-03-31 07:07:15 UTC 
Connect to a guest which doesn't have spice-vdagent, so it doesn't allow to use the mouse in the client mode (eg fresh installed Windows guest).

Mouse will be ungrabbed automatically upon clicking to the spice-gtk widget.

As Uri pointed out it is a regression since https://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/spice-gtk/commit/?id=2cb74f4ac1fc5c3601cbc780f7eefa6e867ba4d2
Comment 1 Pavel Grunt 2016-04-01 16:44:34 UTC 
Seems that it is related to gtk version.
I can reproduce it with gtk 3.20 (latest Fedora), but I cannot reproduce it with gtk 3.14

Mostlikely is it due to recent changes - removed window from gtkstack and also from spice display widget

Also spice-widget uses gdk_pointer_grab() which is deprecated and gdk_device_grab / gdk_seat_grab should be used.
