Got it working in qemu. It is great to see the mouse works with it Smile

It is the first time I could actully get it working on qemu (and my laptop).

I had a problem with one of the test apps. I forget which one.

Great work and thanks for fixing the mouse! Although does that mean than some mice will now go nut?

And unfortunately there is still a problem with the keyboard scancodes in Quemu
It generates wrong scancodes (removes 0xE0h and 0xF0 and other additional codes) ... i might need a special keyboar driver for Quemu only and a way to detect it is running under it

However you can play a lot with the mouse only ... but you can not enter Network IPs amd Masks and Gateways with the mouse only

Makes me wonder if i should make a keyboard simulator application just for the mouse Wink
