Public bug reported: Running Fedora14 [host], I have caps-lock and control swapped over in my keyboard preferences.
Qemu doesn't cope very well with this; running an OS inside Qemu (again fedora, suspect that it doesn't matter): The physical caps-lock key [which the host uses as control] toggles caps-lock on both press and release. The physical control key [which the host uses as caps-lock], acts as both a caps-lock and control key. Qemu should either respect my keyboard layout or else ignore it completely. ** Affects: qemu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Swapping caps lock and control causes qemu confusion https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/678363 You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU.
