The USB keyboard emulation's translation table in hw/usb-hid.c doesn't match the codes actually sent for the Logo (a.k.a. "Windows") or Menu keys. This results in the guest OS not being able to receive these keys at all when the USB keyboard emulation is being used. In particular, both the keymap in /usr/share/kvm/keymaps/modifiers and the evdev table in x_keymap.c map these keys to 0xdb, 0xdc, and 0xdd, while usb_hid_usage_keys[] seems to be expecting them to be mapped to 0x7d, 0x7e, and 0x7f. The attached patch seems to fix the problem, at least in my (limited) testing. This indeed fixes the problem, which is indeed exist. http://bugs.debian.org/578846 http://bugs.debian.org/600593 (cloned from the above against different pkg) https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/584139 Signed-Off-By: Brad Jorsch <[email protected]> Signed-Off-By: Michael Tokarev <[email protected]> diff --git a/hw/usb-hid.c b/hw/usb-hid.c --- a/hw/usb-hid.c +++ b/hw/usb-hid.c @@ -401,3 +401,3 @@ static const uint8_t usb_hid_usage_keys[0x100] = { 0x51, 0x4e, 0x49, 0x4c, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, - 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, + 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0xe3, 0xe7, 0x65, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00,
