Hello.
I'm using FreeBSD 14.2 right now and I'm trying to use the virtio-input parameter in bhyve to share one of my mouses within a Linux vm :
I tried on my FreeBSD system :
The USB mouse that I want to pass is this :
so,between the bhyve parameters I've added ---> "-s 10,virtio-input,/dev/input/event9"
Unfortunately inside Ubuntu 24.04 the "0x04b3 USB Optical Mouse" pointer does not move at all. Someone has the same problem and has fixed it in some way ? Let me know.
