Looking Glass - Triage

[gnif]

seeing if there is a better way to interact than using Synergy.

Looking Glass is a SPICE client also, it passes keyboard and mouse events into the VM using it’s “native” hardware.

I’ve read that before, but it seems that my setup seems to have mouse cursor drawing issues. Without using -s I can move the mouse into the window, but it does not update the cursor location unless I right click anywhere. Ill do some more reading. Thanks for this awesome piece of software, just jumped on Patreon to provide a few months of support.

Remove the tablet device from the VM

Thanks for the immediate resolution, I appreciate it. Adding that to my OneNote.

Looking Glass Website/Documentation

Is anyone here interested in maintaining/updating the Looking Glass website/documentation? I am simply finding I don’t have the time, or when I do, it’s one of those jobs I really hate doing. I am considering setting up a wiki (not github wiki though) for this purpose but I will need some people that are really familiar with all the nuances of setting up/configuring LG. I, of course, will be fully willing to contribute to updating/maintaining the information where I can, but as far as how the content is organized willing to step back and give the reigns to someone else. Things of note: I would like the wiki to cover the main distros as well as possible. I will be providing the hosting and server management, so I am open to suggestions on what Wiki/Software to install/use provided it’s FOSS Linux based, preferably also PHP but I am open to other suggestions. The main LG website will remain, but instead of documenting things directly there it will link to the wiki for documentation/faq, etc. It might also be an idea to ask @Wendell if we can have a new section created on this forum specifically for the LookingGlass community, especially since we have ended up with a single long thread for LG support/triage that is a nightmare to troll through for information.

Looking Glass now has an official Topic. This should help us to avoid long threads like this one in the future, and as such, this thread is now locked. If you have any questions or simply want to chat about Looking Glass please make a thread in the new topic.
