How is video and mouse performance? VMware has drivers for that; you |
| 22 |
install them inside the guest. There is seamless mouse integration with |
| 23 |
guest-host, and very fast graphics (I can run Windows Aero without |
| 24 |
problem.) I can also drag&drop files between my Linux and Windows |
| 25 |
desktop and also share the clipboard. |

Does KVM have something similar? |
