ALTGR and spice and windows keyboard language.

Latest response

Hi group,

After we upgraded to 3.1 AltGR stopped working in spice.

Setup. Manager is 3.1.0-50.el6ev. Hypervisors are all 6.4 - 20130318.1.el6_4.
My desktop computer is Windows7 Enterprise SP1 (danish), Internet Explorer is version 9 - 64bit version.

When I connect to my VM's (running rhel 5 or 6 with danish keyboard layout), ALTGR is ignored by spice.

Now, I tried changing the keyboard layout locally on Windows7 from danish to US/English, to see if that was the problem. Now to my suprise, I have a working _danish_ keyboard layout with AltGR working when I connect to the VMs.

But this is rather annoying. Anyone else from a non-us/english keyboard country experienced this or have a suggestion how to fix?

Regards, Brian
