The driver is there but they messed up the xorg.conf file.

-A friend of mine found this so I have to give credit to SW on this one-
in the Section “ServerLayout” add InputDevice “Mouse0″ “CorePointer”
then in the Section “InputDevice” add (or create)
Identifier “Mouse0″
Driver “vmmouse”
Option “Protocol” “IMPS/2″
Option “Device” “/dev/input/mice”
Option “ZAxisMapping” “4 5″
Option “Emulate3Buttons” “yes”
EndSection

Reboot and you should be all good.

So if you are managing 2 or 3 hosts this is no big deal… But if you have 12-100 hosts and they all need the same switch config….. This is hot..
