there is even the possibility to combine the 'xev_track' program with
Xnest on plain Linux:
http://genode.org/documentation/release-notes/9.11#Seamless_Xvfb_integration_into_Genode_on_Linux
But I should note that we haven't run this setup for quite some time.
Still it is fun to play with and provides a nice way to investigate the
functioning of 'xev_track'.
Cheers
Norman
