-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1VNC is a good idea... But isn't it a bit "laggy" for this purpose? Ithink people accept a laggy mouse cursor in a VNC window that comes over the network, but won't really accept that in virtual machine that's running directly on their desktop. OTOH, I'm no VNC expert :) and maybe there are tricks to speed this up?!
The right way to solve this is emulation of hardware cursor offloading. The problem is that modern desktops like to use colored cursors and the current Cirrus emulation only supports monochromatic cursors :-(
Really no way around this without a special guest driver or new VGA emulation.
On the other hand, I had toyed with a shared memory based display driver. That would give you more or less equivalent performance. However, I really don't think localhost VNC is that bad.
