Comment 155 for bug 195982

Greetings,

I opened up an official vmware support ticket because having to use setxkbmap constantly was really getting on my nerves and everyone else seems to be having problems with this as well. We will see what they say. If anyone has anything they think I should mention in particular about this specific issue please feel free to tell me and if I can I will pass it along to them. I also included in the support ticket a link to this discussion.

Hope this helps,
William Deans
