When I use VNC to control a linux VM GUI, I see 2 cursors, and the real one is delayed. How can I fix this?
"Use Tablet Pointer" enabling and disabling had no effect.

Several people mentioned the same thing, but I could not find the answer.

If I install and start VNC Server on an individual VM, and remote control directly, would it help? Actually, I'd love to know if it improves the overall performance and speed, as well as the cursor issue.

Please advise.
 
well the delay is not really avoidable.

your mouse movements have to be transmitted to the browser -> network -> host -> vm -> interpreted by the guest os -> vm display -> vnc -> network -> your browser

it is normal that there is some delay

i guess it would be better if you directly install a vnc server on the guest and connect there directly (or something like rdp)
 
Thank you for your comment.
Well, Teamviewer and Microsoft RDC does not have this lag, and I have not used VNC for a long time. So I thought there might be a way.

OK. I will try the direct access.
