[resolved] mouse integration intermittent

Post by loukingjr »

I have a PCLinuxOS guest which when started or restarted fails to enable mouse integration randomly. Sometimes it works, sometimes I have to reboot the guest 2 or 3 times before it works. All other guest additions features work fine. I am at a loss where to look. I think it's the guest's problem seeing I have 50 other guests that don't have a problem. Any clue as to what I could look at in the guest?

TIA

I'm not entirely sure how this was resolved. I know it just happened after installing and removing and installing various things and voila. it's working.
