Hi everyone, The issue seems to be reproducible the following way:
0. I am on Ubuntu 12.04.4 1. Install VMWare Player 6.0.2 or 6.0.3 2. Run a VM 3. Go To System settings in Host Ubuntu - Keyboard Layout / Options /Caps Lock behavior -> Make Caps Lock an additional Control but keep Caps_Lock keysym 4. After this, swinging the mouse over a virtual machine's desktop triggers the issue. 5. Running setxkbmap in terminal is a good workaround I finally remembered that I changed the keyboard layout with this modification (thanks to this comment: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xkeyboard- config/+bug/195982/comments/226) I had this for a few days but this issue was really a pain. Hope you can solve it on Ubuntu side Cheers, Adam -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195982 Title: Shift key (and caps lock) stop working when using VMWare To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/195982/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
