[SOLVED] Mouse cursor problem

Post by manfredell »

The old mouse cursor problem, with the cursoe not appearing after a resume from suspend is back again!!!
It was fixed in 3.0.6 (was there in 3.04).

Here is my original post: http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=21417

So right clicking somewhere makes it appear again?
Read the Forum Posting Guide before opening a topic.
VirtualBox FAQ: Check this before asking questions.
Online User Manual: A must read if you want to know what we're talking about.
Howto: Install Linux Guest Additions
Howto: Use Shared Folders on Linux Guest
See the Tutorials and FAQ section at the top of the Forum for more guides.
Try searching the forums first with Google and add the site filter for this forum.
E.g. install guest additions site:forums.virtualbox.org

Is this a Windows guest? And with the Additions installed from the 3.1 beta?

The only way to make it appear is resizing the window. Guest is Windows XP, Guest Add updated.

It's with Windows guest and host, with beta addons installed... It's not new thought... it was happening in 3.0 too.

Just tested. The problem only occurs when the 3.1 beta1 Additions are installed (not with 3.1 beta1 and 3.0.8 Additions)

Working on it :) It isn't an Additions issue though - the 3.0.8 Additions contained an additional workaround which was masking the real problem.
