Bug Description
Vmmouse driver make work with ubuntu under kvm/qemu really nice, so i think it will be great if it will be loaded for qemu by default.
At the moment there is one more issue with hardy default xorg.conf. Vmmouse driver do not working properly without "ServerLayout" section. So if you will try to make it work you should do:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Default Layout"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "VMMouse" "CorePointer"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "VMMouse"
Driver "vmmouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
EndSection
To reproduce this, just install or run ubuntu-live-cd under kvm/qemu ;)

This bug was fixed in the package xorg - 1:7.3+10ubuntu7
---------------
xorg (1:7.3+10ubuntu7) hardy; urgency=low
* dexconf, failsafeDexconf: Default to using vmmouse, which is able to
fall back to mouse if the system is not a virtual machine. Detecting
it otherwise proved to be unreliable. (LP: #197337)
