login screen does not accept keyboard input on vmware fusion

[Nick]

Binary package hint: gdm

I've installed vmware 10.04 Beta 1 on VmWare FUSION version 3.0.2, on a 15" Mac Book Pro.

Once installed, and I am prompted with the login screen, where the mouse is responsive but the keyboard is not.

I have to use the on-screen keyboard to log in.
(Once logged in, the keyboard seems to work fine)

the issue is rather an xorg one, setting to xserver but it's probably rather some input component
