Hi
I occasionally have this strange mouse issue in VirtualBox.
Running an update version of Fedora 25 with GNOME and wayland. (64 bit)
Most recent VirtualBox 5.1.22
Guest Windows 10 with Guest Additions Installed.
Sometimes the mouse partially stops working and the only way to reset
it I've found is to power off the guest.
When I say partially I mean
1) mouse pointer still moves
3) it can be used to trigger the GNOME task switcher (top left corner)
4) no other control responds to clicks
As soon as the Guest stops, everything starts working again.
Keyboard still works and this is what I use to gracefully shut down
the guest.
Somehow the mouse click event is trapped by Virtual Box and cannot be
used.
I know it makes little sense, but this is my best description at the
moment.
The first question I would ask myself is, "does this behavior also occur
if I run GNOME-X11 in the host system?".
P.S. I dislike the changes to the list software which now requires me to use "Reply
List". I keep forgetting that. :-(
