4 Hi,
5
6 another problem I encounter when I use Gentoo. ;-)
7
8 I have a VM (KVM) where I start X11 with qxl driver to use it via vnc. I
9 had the same setup before with Debian.
10
11 While with debian, VNC was fine, with gentoo the mouse get detected
12 wrong. I mean, I have mouse but the pointer is never in sync with the
13 mouse. It seems that it is virtual "scaled" on the way. That make it
14 difficult to find the right point to click and impossible to click on
15 buttons.
16
17 On the other side I use tigervnc that worked best in the past.
18
19 Currently I have no idea how to fix it.
20
21 Ah yes, X11 seems to be a new battle field for me in gentoo. While
22 ~/.xsession was the way to have a custom startup in other distributions,
23 it is ignored in gentoo, used via startx or wdm. I found something about
24 ~/.xprofile but that is also not used anywhere. At least with startx,
25 ~/.xinit is used. Any common way for that?
26
27 Regards
