Qubes mouse fix
by cl2
Qubes mouse fix addresses a mouse problem specific to Qubes OS: the pointer jumping and the camera spinning on its own inside Minecraft.
What it does
Qubes mouse fix works around the way Qubes OS passes mouse input from one of its isolated app qubes into the game. Without it, the camera can fling around at random, because the game keeps trying to set the mouse position. The mod stops that repositioning so the pointer behaves normally in the game window. It is client-side only, so only the player's own game needs it, and servers do not. Files exist for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with the latest 1.2 build for 26.3 released on 2026-10-03.
Key features
Stops camera flinging
Prevents the random camera movement that occurs when the game tries to set the mouse position under Qubes OS.
Qubes passthrough fix
Corrects mouse movement for input passed through from a Qubes OS app qube, which is the setup the mod targets.
Client-side operation
Runs only in the player's game, so servers and other players do not have to install anything.
