Local mouse cursor with Windows client

[Ralf]

I tried searching the bug tracker and devel list for my issue but could not find a similar case. I must admit searching for "mouse" only gave a bit to much results to look at... I also posted to the spice-devel list but got no reply, so I'll try here.

I'm using virt-viewer 1.0256 on Windows to connect to a Debian 7.7 Server running qemu-kvm-1.1.2+dfsg-6+deb7u6 and libspice-server1-0.11.0-1+deb7u1 which in turn runs several Virtual Machines.

This all works well for most VM's, but when I run an Android VM I can't see my mouse when it enters the virt-viewer Window. Since Android does not show a mouse pointer because it is touch based, I need to guess my location and hope for the best :)

When I read Spice for Newbies chapter 3.6 "Mouse Modes" it looks like I should use "Client mouse" so I have set the libvirt domain option , but this makes no difference to mode server...

I've looked everywhere, but I can't find an option to have virt-viewer just show my local (Windows) mouse pointer. Or just a little dot as VNC could do would be nice.

Am I running into a Bug (should it do what I want?) or am I doing somethig wrong?
