For some reason the latest virt-install/virt-manager don't set it up automatically. After doing "virsh edit <guest>" and changing: <graphics type='vnc' port='5900' autoport='yes'/> to <graphics type='vnc' port='5900' autoport='yes' keymap='fi'/> guest console keymap/keyboard works as expected. RHEL5/CentOS5 version of virt-install/virt-manager configure keymap='fi' automatically.. F11/F12 versions don't do that. -- Pasi -- Fedora-xen mailing list Fedora-xen@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-xen
