The biggest pain for me with a GUI installation of SUSE on Hyper-V was that I had no mouse driver. So I went hardcore and stripped it back to command line like a real Penguin-Lover 😉 Citrix and MS have a cooperative project called Satori. They’ve just released a Virtual Service Client (an integration component or enlightenment) for “Linux guests” that provides a mouse driver for Linux.
A buddy, Tim Berk, emailed me to let me know it was in the blogosphere. I’ve been offline with the TechDays tour and work in between. Tim has tried it out. It works but it sounds like it is kionda like using one of those HP/Avocent KVM devices where you get a double mouse effect going on with a little latency. Still, it’s better than nothing and makes life for a Windows guy like me a little easier!
