WindowsXP Guest on VBox 2.2.2 VBoxSDL Key Mapping Issue

Post by kewlpics »

I am using Ubuntu 9.0.4 and VBox 2.2.2 for a WindowsXP guest on HP nc6400 Laptop. When I start the VM using VBoxSDL, it appears that it maps the down arrow key as the Windows Start Menu Key. However, the actual start menu key does nothing when I press it.

This issue does not exist when I start the VM using VirtualBox GUI or VirtualBox command line commands.

Wondering if anyone sees the same issue.

Also, I don't see the issue using VBoxSDL on my desktop using Ubuntu 8.0.4 host and same WinXP guest.
