Weird constant input in vmware - help!


2 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

I have managed to install osx in vmware but whenever I boot it up it constantly beeps because of a pressed key. When trying to type in an url in safari I get an error stating that it can't open the page %1c%1c%1c%1c%1c etc.

So it seems to be the file separator character which makes no sense to me.

Has anyone seen anything like this before?

 

edit: oh wait. when I connect the usb keyboard directly to the guest the problem doesn't seem to occur. So it has something to do with vmwares keyboard emulation.
