hi

i have vmware 2 installed on a ubuntu hardy 64 host, and i am having great difficulties in finding a solution the my problem with keyboard mapping on the guest OS (mainly ubuntu - but also windows).

i have searched for solutions and done the following.

added the following line to my /etc/vmware/config on the host
Code:
xkeymap.nokeycodeMap = true
and configure vmware server again
Code:
vmware-config.pl
i have also added the line to my local config (~/.vmware/config) on the client (machine connecting to host)
Code:
xkeymap.nokeycodeMap = true
but these steps did not solve the problem of mapping my keyboard correctly.
for example;
- my arrow keys do not work
- no insert, home, page up or down, etc..

i have found a number of solutions on the web but they seem to be focused on the general keyboard for US.

any assistance fixing the UK (and other) keyboard layouts on vmware 2 will be mostly appreciated.

thanks,
