The previous post was for a working machine with no updates installed.
With updates installed and no longer working, the above becomes:
xprop -root |grep NAMES.S
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "SKIP", "gb,us", "mac,", ""
grep ^X /etc/default/console-setup
XKBMODEL="SKIP"
XKBLAYOUT="us"
XKBVAR
xprop -root |grep NAMES.S
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "macbook79", "gb,us", "mac,", ""
grep ^X /etc/default/console-setup
XKBMODEL="macbook79"
XKBLAYOUT="gb"
XKBVARIANT="mac"
XKBOPTIONS=""
udevadm info --export-db|grep LAYOUT|sort -u
E: XKBLAYOUT=gb

keyboard input broken at gnome
This is definitely a problem with the guest not detecting the keyboard
mappings or saving them. For some reason it insists on using American
layout settings even if i log in an apply them system wide.
The only way i can use my machine at this point in time is to set it to
AutoLogin and then i am f
After a little more research and VM building, this is what i find.
I can reproduce this problem with Ubuntu as guest on the following
operating systems.
Ubuntu Karmic 64-bit
Mac OSX Snow Leopard
Windows XP
Windows 7
VMWare ESXi 4.0
For the most part, the problem is identical. Everything works wi
I have attached the Xorg logs from both the working and non-working
VM's. There seems to be some issue with xkb creating xkm files at the
end of the machine that is not working.

My none-working setup is as follows:
VMWare Fusion 3.0.2 build-232780
Host OS: Mac OSX 10.6.3 (32/64bit)
Guest OS: Ubuntu 10.04 Beta (64-bit), Kernel Ubuntu 2.6.32-19.28-generic
I have setup a second VM should anyone wish to check the differences, with a
standard install
of 10.04 beta1, no updat
Thanks for that, i did read the thread beforehand, which was how i found
this bug report. However i am not one of the lucky few that seems to
have option of a onscreen keyboard to get me by. The best i can do is
ssh. I may try something like nomachine to get me by for now.

Additionally when i run:
setxkbmap gb
Cannot open display "default display"
or setxkbmap of any form i get this error message.
I am running this from a ssh session.
Attached is my dmesg output just incase.

Ok, i rebuilt the VM as it only takes about 10mins to recreate. I ran
the following before the update:
sudo DISPLAY=:0 xprop -root |grep NAMES.S
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "SKIP", "gb,us", "mac,", ""
and then again after the update:
sudo DISPLAY=:0 xprop -root |grep NAMES.S
_XKB_RULES_
Just to add to your woes and to add a bit of diversity. I would like to
point out that this does not only apply to Ubuntu as VM on a Windows
host.
I have exactly the same problem with Lucid, running under VM Fusion on
Mac OSX. Interestingly, i only built this machine today and only had
