I'm running Space Quest 3 in a DOSBox session in a Ubuntu VirtualBox Virtual Machine on MacOS. The mouse is jumping around everywhere. Does anyone know how to solve this mouse issue?
I know DOSBox can be run natively under MacOS, I like the security of it running in a VM under Linux. Hoping for a solution with this configuration. Thanks
I see no practical reason to run DOSBox under a VM. 😜
You're much better off running it on the host OS.

I'm worried about the security. I guess for some reason I trust the VirtualBox build more than DOSBox.

Whoa, don't go suggesting something sensible like that. He's really worried about the security.
OP, if you trust Oracle's Virtualbox, wait till you see this: https://www.pcmag.com/news/oracle-faces-class … -billion-people
