Seamless mouse does work, but AFAIK requires an xorg.conf: Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "xfce" InputDevice "Mouse1" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "vboxmouse" EndSection Tested on FreeBSD 9-stable amd64 host, VirtualBox 4.1.10, FreeBSD 9-stable i386 guest, virtualbox-ose-additions 4.1.10. That's for an xserver without HAL, maybe with HAL it will autodetect. The first couple of clicks after startup seem to get lost, but otherwise it works.
