VMware Remote Console Firefox Plug-in And Arrow Keys
2009-06-30
VMware remote console was working properly for me when I was using Ubuntu Hardy. After upgrading to Jaunty the arrow keys stopped working inside the remote console. Seems some people face this problem even under windows.
A search got me to this :
echo xkeymap.nokeycodeMap="TRUE" > ~/.vmware/config
Just close any open remote consoles and open up again and you’re in business.
