I was going to use the mac keyboard for both. I dont reqlly want to carry 2 keyboards to portland but i might have to at this point.
I didn’t see anything in the vmware settings about anything pertaining to the capslock key so no idea what i’m missing. Speakup has a nice laptop layout perfect for what i was going to do but doesn’t work with out the capslock key. deedra waters [email protected] > On Dec 13, 2014, at 2:05 PM, Chris Moore <[email protected]> wrote: > > You may want to tweak some of the vmware setting for keyboard and mouse. > If you’re running arch with speakup, you may want to consider plugging in an > external usb keyboard with a num pad.
