You might also want to test QEMU's hid tablet (-usbdevice tablet) which didn't
work last time I tried, unlike the wacom-tablet one.
VirtualBox also can emulate a usb tablet.
OTH none seem to emulate any joystick at all...

Btw, I had an issue when writing the VirtualBox mouse input_server add-on.
Because virtualbox only passes absolute coordinates to it, I'm only able to
send B_MOUSE_MOVED messages without the buttons field. Some apps like Tracker
don't really like this and fail to handle selections or drags because it
doesn't see the buttons as being pressed.
I'm wondering if input_server should merge button states or not, in which case
I should use a filter addon instead as the vmware one does.
François.
