I've tested the "mouse cursor" bug (the one reported by Roshi) with
~15/20 attempts: I haven't been able to reproduce it.
Here are some details:
1) qemu-kvm via virt-manager on a Fedora 22 host
2) Yes, my VM has got that virtual 'tablet', created by default.
3) The video adapter is QXL/SPICE here.
4) Two Amd GPUs (4250m+5650m) with radeon driver on the host.
5) KDE x86_64 TC11 on the guest.
