Subject: [PATCH] Fixed absolute mouse positioning in Windows 98
Windows 98 contains a buggy HID driver. It allows you to move only
on the upper right quarter of the screen. Yes, this is indeed exceeding
the maximum value from the HID report. Yes, it really should work that way.
VirtualBox has a similar fix, but with a shift in the other direction
(I didn't dig the details). I suppose it can be fixed somehow with a special
HID descriptor, but the proposed fix is simpler and really works.
