Title:
  msmouse serial mouse emulation broken? No id byte sent on reset

Status in QEMU:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I took a shot at getting Windows 1.01 working.  It doesn't support a
  PS/2 mouse out-of-the-box but does support MS serial mice.  It doesn't
  seem to detect qemu's emulated msmouse.

  When I run this command:

  > qemu-system-i386 -nodefaults -hda my_windows1_hd.qcow2 -vga std
  -serial msmouse -trace enable='serial*'  -icount shift=10,align=on

  I get this output (edited):

  The write of 0x01 and then 0x0b to reg 0x04 is the guest turning the
  RTS line off then on.  A real mouse will respond to this by sending
  0x4d, which is how the guest detects the mouse.

  Reproducible in current stable-4.2 and 5.0 (debian's build).  I am
  able to get the guest to use a real passed-through serial mouse (with
  a minor hack, separate bug filed for this)
