[Bug 553081] [NEW] [lucid kvm-qemu]High cpu usage when moving mouse

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse

Running lucid beta1 64bit in kvm-qemu vm:
Sometime prior to beta1, system was responsive.
Now I can barely move the mouse without causing one of the cpus on the host machine to peg out.
And /usr/bin/X using all of the cpu resources on the guest machine.
After removing the xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse package and rebooting, the system becomes responsive again.
Subsequent reboot was responsive too.
After reinstalling the package, the system became sluggish again.

I notice in the changelog that 1:12.6.5-2ubuntu2 through ubuntu4 were released 2010-03-02 to 05.
This is about the time this issue occurred.
1:12.6.5-2ubuntu3 had a change regarding kvm detection:
  * debian/patches/enable-detect-in-kvm.patch: add iopl() back so
    vmmouse_detect will work in kvm again.
