i have the following problem: the keboard layout is not correct. I need de_DE, in Ubuntu and VirtualBox (guest system is windows server 2012 R2/Windows 7).
On Ubuntu Mate i checked every option, acutally ther is only one layout installed: de_DE (Deutsch (Deutschland)), the only language is 'Deutsch.
The guest system keyboard layout is defined to de_DE. But when i do any input, ther are following probs:
y/z is not correct, e.g. on the [SHIFT] + [.] key is "Ö"... When i try to copy the character "-" from the host system and insert it in the guest system it becomes a * ...
for example: , . - is on the guest , . ß
Shift and , . - is ö Ö ?
Actually it is unpossible to insert a "-" or "\" on the guest system. On the host system everything works fine. I use a 64bit host and a 64 bit guest system.
I don't know where the problem acutally is, i installed the guest extensions... i have no problems when it is a real us layout, but there are some things that doesnt work correctly....
Edit: Now i have additionally the problem, that the "host key" (CTRL right) doesn't have any function. I'm via teamviewer actually on the linux host and i cannot enter a "&", which i need for the windows passwort
Please help!
I'm a german guy who cannot speak really good english, so, sorry for bad english..
greets
