General rule for -k: If your keyboard layout is messed up try using -k, otherwise don't bother. When you use vnc -k might be needed, but whenever that is actually the case depends on the vnc client. There is a vnc extension to send raw keycodes, if the vnc client supports that this gives best results, if it doesn't you probably need -k for any non-us keyboard layout. The usual virt-related clients (virt-manager, virt-viewer, remote-viewer) support that vnc extension. cheers, Gerd -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
