Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) Desktop - English

http://www.vmware.com/appliances/directory/1068

This Ubuntu 7.10 VM is perfect to test drive Ubuntu or as a secondary operating system running within Windows.

As of this writing, it looks to be mis-configured. The keyboard seems to be set up for German, not English as stated. Quite a few key mappings are different between the two. If you know how to configure X, that's fixable inside the machine.

If I try to login the username 'user' and password 'user' don't work.

Try all kinds of caps/non kaps.

Is it a qwerty keyboard problem?

Thanks!

Shared folders work fine for me. I am using Workstation 6.0.3 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client release 5.1.

Indeed my home directory on Red Hat cannot be shared with Ubuntu in the virtual machine due to access rights.

But other directories work fine.

On the Ubuntu in the VM, the shared directories are mounted into: /mnt/hgfs
