Teamviewer 3 at Virtualbox - mousecursor isn't usable

Hey people,

thank you, that your Virtualbox is a deluxe program like it is. You bring me back to linux, because I can now run my important software under Virtualbox.

But I have a problem:

I need to use Teamviewer 3. Connecting is no problem, but I can't use my mousecursor any more. In linux, it is normal. But when I move it into the VIrtualbox, it flickers and is 1ms the, 1ms not....absolutely unusable. Could you help me?

Thanks a lot!

Sascha

bump

Running a WinXP host under ArchLinux with VBox 3.0.4. Hosting a meeting using remote desktop sharing softwares Mikogo and Teamviewer causes the mouse to disappear when someone joins. I can see the mouse occasionally when I move it very fast, and also I see various widgets lighting up and whatnot as I hover over them, but the cursor itself is usually invisible.

Seems like it might be a small problem, but it makes those programs completely unusable. Any ideas?

Thanks

Got no problems with TV v3 usb version, running inside a RDP session or on the desktop and seemless mode, no problems. Have a look at the advanced TV options on the Host side.

well, i bumped this thread because it did seem pretty related, but specifically i'm using TV 4. as i said, though, i get the same results with Mikogo. i didn't see any options that looked especially relevant yesterday, but i'll have another look this afternoon.

thanks

also, as i said, the problem doesn't occur until someone actually joins a session you're hosting.

did you test that?

thanks
