Added keyboard locale support in VM #10

Closed johnnytk closed 9 years ago

Parse the hosts keyboard layout and set that in the VM. Tested on Ubuntu 14.04.

Bump. What do you think Johnny, is this really usable? It looks a bit too low level and brittle and might break on some systems? I need to be convinced... :-)

johnnytk commented 9 years ago

is it the actual parsing of the keyboard layout that is to brittle? I general I think it's a must that the VM respects the hosts keyboard layout. I have an updated version in the works which also integrates an keyboard switcher into the lx panel.

Any solution would help here, IMHO. With each new VM, I have to look up the command for changing the keyboard layout. I already keep getting advertisements for Alzheimer medication from Google. :-)
