You can specify a keymap entry to be used for all virtual machines and keymap entries
for specific machines.
• To specify a global keymap entry for virtual machines on the host, edit the host's
xend-config.sxp file.
• To specify a keymap entry for a specific virtual machine, edit the virtual machine's
settings by following instructions in
by Modifying its xend Settings"
In the device > vfb section, add the desired keymap entry to the file. For example,
you can specify a German keyboard. Make sure the virtual machine's operating system
is set to use the specified keyboard. After you specify the host's keymap setting, all
virtual machines created by using the Create Virtual Machine Wizard on the host add
the host's keymap entry to their virtual machine settings.
Virtual machines created before a host's keymap entry is specified are not automati-
cally updated. These virtual machines start with the keyboard specified by the host, but
the keymap entry is not a permanent part of the virtual machine's settings. For the
entry to be permanent, it must be explicitly stated in the virtual machine's settings.
