26 Thanks, Nicolas. I also have a qemu guest win7 image, and the mouse capture works
27 as expected when I run it with virt-manager. No idea why winXP behaves differently,
28 though.

30 I notice that virt-manager runs qemu without the -enable-kvm flag, and win7 runs
31 significantly slower because of that. Is there some way to convince virt-manager
32 to use the -enable-kvm option?
