Choose a proper location, if you want.
In which directory do you want to keep your virtual machine files? [/var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines]
I know there are a number of Closed threads that mention how to fix this. And maybe I missed the obvious. But to save others some time. 1. All the threads say to edit /etc/vmware/config 2. And some do say to edit ~/.vmare/config #2 is in your home folder. #1 is what I did and it did not work. I see now why it did not work, which was obvious, the /etc/vmware/config was on the server and I think some of these threads where people using vmware on their desktop. ??? So #2 worked right away by 1. nano .vmware/config It may not exist 2. xkeymap.nokeycodeMap = true And start up the vmware machine and it all should work.http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1056799
