Configuration
Warning
The following limitations do not apply in case of USB and Mouse Type
“ MS Windows 2000 and newer ” .
While
the
V-IP
works
with
accelerated
mice
and
is
able
to
synchronize
the
local
with
the
remote
mouse
pointer,
there
are
the
following
limitations
which
may
prevent
this
synchronization
from
working
properly:
Special
Mouse
Driver
There
are
mouse
drivers
which
influence
the
synchronization
process
and
lead
to
desynchronized
mouse
pointers.
If
this
happens,
make
sure
you
do
not
use
a
special
vendor-specific
mouse
driver
on
your
host
system.
Windows
2003
Server/XP
Mouse
Settings
Windows
XP
knows
a
setting
named
“
improve
mouse
acceleration
”
which
has
to
be
deactivated.
Active
Desktop
If
the
Active
Desktop
feature
of
Microsoft
Windows
is
enabled,
do
not
use
a
plain
background.
Instead,
use
some
kind
of
wallpaper.
As
an
alternative,
you
could
also
disable
the
Active
Desktop
completely.
See
also
the
Section
called
Recommended
Mouse
Settings
for
mouse
mode
recommen-
dations.
Navigate
your
mouse
pointer
into
the
upper
left
corner
of
the
applet
screen
and
move
it
slightly
forth
and
back.
Thus
the
mouse
will
be
resynchronized.
If
resynchronizing
fails,
disable
the
mouse
acceleration
and
repeat
the
procedure.
Single and Double Mouse Mode
The
information
above
applies
to
the
Double
Mouse
Mode
where
remote
and
local
mouse
pointers
are
visible
and
need
to
be
synchronized.
The
V-IP
also
features
an-
other
mode,
the
Single
Mouse
Mode,
where
only
the
remote
mouse
pointer
is
visible.
Activate
this
mode
in
the
Remote
Console
(see
the
Section
called
Remote
Console
Con-
trol
Bar
in
Chapter
5
)
and
click
into
the
window
area.
The
local
mouse
pointer
will
be
hidden
and
the
remote
one
can
be
controlled
directly.
To
leave
this
mode
it
is
nec-
essary
to
define
a
mouse
hotkey
in
the
Remote
Console
Settings
Panel
Press
this
key
to
free
the
captured
local
mouse
pointer.
Recommended Mouse Settings
For
the
different
operating
systems
we
can
give
the
following
advice:
MS
Windows
NT4
NT4
supports
PS/2,
only.
Please
choose
the
options
PS/2
mouse
and
Auto
Mouse
Speed.
MS
Windows
2000,
2003,
XP
(all
versions)
In
general,
we
recommend
the
usage
of
a
mouse
via
USB.
Choose
USB
without
Mouse
Sync.
