Hi,

Excuse me but I didn't find any related answer yet.

I am using a french keyboard, everything was fine on my Ubuntu 8.04 until I upgraded my VirtualBox from 1.5.x to 1.6.2.

Now my keyboard is still french on my guest (windows xp) but I'm missing some keys. (like â,ê for example)

Any idea how to solve this problem ?

My Ubuntu is a 8.04. Thank you :-)

Have you selected the French language in VirtualBox Preferences?
Go to 'File' - 'Preferences' - 'Language' to do this.

On Main Window

File --> Preferences --> Input

Uncheck "Auto Capture Keyboard"
