FreeBSD 14-RELEASE.

I am completely unable to get my mouse working on ALL my bhyve VMs. This
used to work before I upgraded to FreeBSD 14 RELEASE.

How I start my VM:

# Linux Guest
/usr/sbin/bhyve -A -D -H -P -S -u -w -c 8 -m 8G \
-s 0,hostbridge \
-s 4,virtio-blk,/usr/local/bhyve-vms/Ubuntu/ubuntu.img \
-s 5,virtio-net,tap4 \
-s 8,hda,play=/dev/dsp,rec=/dev/dsp \
-s 29,fbuf,tcp=0.0.0.0:5905,w=1024,h=768 \
-s 30,xhci,tablet \
-s 31,lpc -l com1,stdio \
-l bootrom,/usr/local/share/uefi-firmware/BHYVE_UEFI.fd \
ubuntu


Now I wonder what happened. No amount of changing w=,h= can help. I have
even tried 800x600.
Even during the installation of a new VM, I have to rely completely on the
keyboard.

My VMs are on a remote server so I use VNCViewer to access them via
public_ip:XXXX.

Is this a problem with bhyve or my VNCViewer guys?

I really need help with this.

 In an Internet failure case, the #1 suspect is a constant: DNS.
"Oh, the cruft.", egrep -v '^$|^.*#' ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ :-)
