my normal working keyboard on UBUNTU 8.10 (host) get crazy in (also) Xubuntu Live CD (guest) in VMPLAYER 2.5.1.

Cursor keys dont work at all, NumLock is blocked - I have to use shift + KP.. to get numbers, ...

I have run "xev" on guest- and it is crazy - cursor keys, ins, Home, ... gets improper codes of other keys, ....

I have to say, that in VirtualBox is no problem. The guest system gets exact the same "keycodes" like the host system, NumLock is possible tu change also in guest.

?????

BTW - How is it possible to enter BIOS SETUP ? After "reset" it is almost impossible to press CTRL+G and then F2 - the system POST ist too fast !

Thanks all for replay
