VMWare Player 3.0.1 build-227600
Host OS: Windows XP
Guest OS: Ubuntu 10.04 Beta, Kernel 2.6.32-17-generic
After installing a slew of Ubuntu updates on 3/26/2010 keyboard input at
the gnome login prompt no longer works. The mouse does work and I am
able to use the 'on-screen keyboard' accessibility tool to input my
password and gain entry. After logging in, there does not seem to be
any problems using the keyboard, I experience the problem only at the
gnome login screen.
I suspected that after updating that possibly some of the vmware drivers
may not be working correctly, so I ran vmware-config-tools.pl to
recompile the tools, which didn't work. I've tried a couple of cycles
of rebooting the VM and restarting vmware player, which hasn't resolved
the problem either.
I've attached the portion of the apt history.log showing the packages
that were applied during the update.
