Guest type: other Host type: Windows

Description (last modified by Frank Mehnert)

Host: WinXP SP2
Guest: WinXP SP2 (with Guest addtions installed)
VirtualBox 1.6.2

Issue: Disappearing mouse pointer over text, if host is controlled by Remote Desktop

Steps to re-create:

  1. Remote Desktop to host
  2. Start VirtualBox's Guest
  3. Start notepad in Guest OS
  4. Point to text input area, mouse cursor disappeared

Things to note:

The issue will not happen if Guest OS's mouse pointer is other than default (such as "beam_r.cur") ...

Is it a bug ? can it be fixed ?

Thanks very much for help [[BR]]
