In a VM with stock settings (Linux 64-bit), Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Desktop 
Live CD works okay, installed also seems to work okay.  The mouse is a 
little draggy but usable, like using a wireless mouse.  kern.hz is set 
to 100 on the host (9-stable, er 9.1-BETA1, amd64).  This is without 
guest additions.  Trying the VirtualBox menu "install guest additions" 
made it crash.

The only mouse problem I saw was the mouse pointer disappearing when 
over some preferences icons.
