Note for Red Hat 9 KVM Target Servers

If you are running Red Hat

9 on the target server using a USB CIM, and

are experiencing problems with the keyboard and/or mouse, there is an
additional configuration setting you can try.

Tip: You might have to perform these steps even after a fresh OS
installation.

To configure Red Hat 9 servers using USB CIMs:

1. Locate the configuration file (usually /etc/modules.conf) in your

system.

2. Using the editor of your choice, make sure that the alias

usb-controller line in the modules.conf file is as follows:

alias usb-controller usb-uhci

Note: If there is another line using usb-uhci in the /etc/modules.conf
file, it needs to be removed or commented out.

3. Save the file.

4. Reboot the system in order for the changes to take effect.

Linux Settings (Red Hat 4)

Note: The following settings are optimized for Standard Mouse mode
only.

To configure KVM target servers running Linux

(graphical user

interface):

1. Configure the mouse settings:

a. Red Hat 5 users, choose Main Menu > Preferences > Mouse.

Red Hat 4 users, choose System > Preferences > Mouse. The
Mouse Preferences dialog appears.

b. Click on the Motion tab.

c. Within the Speed group, set the Acceleration slider to the exact

center.

d. Within the Speed group, set the Sensitivity towards low.

e. Within the Drag & Drop group, set the Threshold towards small.

Note: If these steps do not work, issue the xset mouse 1 1 command
as described in the Linux command line instructions.
