CentOS 7.6 mouse not working

Post by digitalwiz » 2019/01/22 21:06:59

I recently installed CentoOS 7.6, release 1810, and the mouse doesn't work. It moves but hovering doesn't bring up the corresponding tool tip and clicks don't do anything. Earlier releases work just fine. In fact, I updated an earlier release and the updated kernel does the same thing while the older kernel still works.

Are you running CentOS 7.6 on a virtualbox guest? If so, there is a known mouse issue:
