Fixing VMWare Player keyboard mappings in Windows guest

by @ 8:50 am. Filed under vmware


In ubuntu 8.10, vmware player does weird keyboard stuff when opening a windows guest, some keys such as END and Arrow Down open start menu. I found the fix here

Close your virtual machine and type the following in console:

echo ‘xkeymap.nokeycodeMap = true’ > ~/.vmware/config
