I've now tested again with my not-just-the-laptop setup, and: * in the guest OS (I tested with a Linux guest), PageUp/Down work OK and work the same whether I use an external USB keyboard with a physical PgUp/Down key or the MacBook Air's keyboard with Fn+UpArrow/Fn+DownArrow as the chord to input pageup/down * in the monitor window, neither way of inputting PageUp/Down works: all you get is a ',' input into the monitor So my conclusion is that we should fix the underlying problem that the monitor isn't handling PgUp/PgDown correctly (not sure exactly why that's not working yet). If your particular OSX version really doesn't implement the Fn+Up/Down == PageUp/Down chord then I think you should address that at the OSX level, not in QEMU (there are likely several OSX utilities that will do the job). thanks -- PMM
