Got interrupted and couldn't get to this for a while. I'm giving up on VmWare - if i have to troubleshoot something as commonplace as the mouse i can't trust it. And i've wasted too much time. VirtualBox and Hyper-V don't have any problems so far. thanks for the suggestions!

thanks, but there is a simulation environment in the VM that i need and cannot load myself (it isn't available that way). The VM comes with no support, but this is almost certainly a VMWare problem, since i can duplicate it with any GUI-based VM.

Well, the ova came from an Italian University, so it's more likely the Medicis are involved than de Sade. I've tried 3 mice: logitec 3 button USB microsoft 3 button USB (it was $9, can't get much cheaper) microsoft bluetooth same results with them all. I'll see what i can do to get networking going, but this is not the only GUI-based VM this has happened with, The others were a while ago and had slipped my mind. Getting feebleminded, I guess. Or maybe frustrated that almost 60 year old technology (mice) isn't fully supported. Pardon my ignorance, but what key sequence should kill the gui? I almost never use Linux with a GUI so I am unfamiliar (and unimpressed) with Gnome.

thanks. I misspoke: I imported an ova. The vm boots straight to the gui - no login is required, and no option to do otherwise is offered.. Networking is not fully configured so I cannot ssh, I have been unable to find an option to open a console window, as is available esxi. Given that I cannot use the mouse in the interface (gnome, i believe), thus cannot open a terminal, I cannot install VMware tools. Nor can I tab among the icons as none can be selected from which to begin tabbing.

as the subject line indicates, VMs with a gui have trouble with the mouse. Dell XPS 15 9510 32G RAM, Intel processor - i can't keep all of the variants straight and am not at the pc now. host OS: Win11 with all updates as of 6/12/2022. guest OS: Ubuntu 20.04 in an ova file [non-gui ubuntu 20 vms work fine] the system has 2 thunderbolt ports and a usb3 port i have tried 3 mice, one bluetooth and two basic MS 3 button USB mice i have uninstalled and reinstalled vmware and toggled every option that i thought might help. hard to summarize the troubleshooting i've done but the problem presents as either no mouse cursor at all or a mouse cursor pegged to the bottom right corner of the virtual screen. ctl-g changes nothing, ctl-alt returns mouse to host os. any help will be appreciated
