There isn't a problem of moving the mouse out of the VMWare window - I can 
move it freely between the X and the VM window - and it will change 
accordingly (white in windows, black in X) - of course - the cursor change is 
if the VM window is on focus (active).

No problem with full screen at all. It's just that when I'm moving the mouse 
out of the VM window and click-to-focus on another Linux window (example - 
konsole, xchat, etc...) - then I have to wait like around 6-10 seconds before 
its getting focus..

Matthias - could you give a hand please? (I heard you're the kwin expert)
