I have been trying to get the 4.5 Qt SDK to work in a VMware OSX guest (Linux host) but although they seem to run fine, the mouse doesn't work at all. When using a Qt application I can't click on anything and it doesn't seem to register that the mouse is moving over the widgets.

 

Other applications work fine, it's just the Qt apps that don't seem to work correctly.

 

Is Qt doing something weird with the mouse that make it not work in a VM? That could be a serious problem for anyone wanting to run Qt applications in OSX guests.

I can confirm this. The new Cocoa-based Qt works fine, but as a developer, that sucks, since the Cocoa version of Qt requires at least an Intel Mac running Leopard, but I'd like to support PowerPC users, however, since testing the Carbon version on OSX86 is impossible, I have to say "compile it yourself".
