Hi

If someone could help with this it would be great.

If there is a better forum for posting this then please point me in the right direction.

I have been running Ubuntu 8.04 for some time and using VMWare Player to run an XP virtual machine for a few tasks at work i just cant do in Linux.

Everything was fine until a few days ago when I decided to take the plunge and upgraded my laptop to the release candidate of Intrepid Ibex (8.10)

Now when Im using my Virtual Machine - several of my non alpha numeric keys either dont work or have unexpected results in the XP desktop. The most obvious ones are my cursor keys do nothing except the down one which seems to have been mapped to the "Super" key and so opens the start menu.
