 That should work. HE is a bit different, and noVNC client doesn't support

mapping can be done, to make the experience 'quite pleasant'. In fact 
the only thing missing right now (with a swedish layout) is the 
recognition of the  key. That to works with native the native 
client.


There is as you probably know an old issue to NoVNC, that was brought 
back to life just a few months ago. To my understanding addressing this 
issue

I've tested now also with a hosted engine setup. Can't see there either that 
the keyboard layout information set in the web-ui ever reaches the VM.

That should work. HE is a bit different, and noVNC client doesn't support 
keymaps properly, but you should see it in xml

Does spice work? Any special reason you can't use it?
Spice does work. I do however prefer a web based console, and  the spice 
based is in a very sorry state.

Think we have a bug here.

Looks like that is a regression indeed. Feel free to open bug yourself, it 
shouldn't be difficult to fix

Will do, thanks (a million) !

That should work. HE is a bit different, and noVNC client doesn't support 
keymaps properly, but you should see it in xml

Looks like that is a regression indeed. Feel free to open bug yourself, it

No one ?

I've tested now also with a hosted engine setup. Can't see there either 
that the keyboard layout information set in the web-ui ever reaches the VM.

Think we have a bug here.

We therefore (just to test) created a small host hook adding a static 
keyboard layout, and with the hook, it seem to work as expected as the 
-k switch to kvm is now populated.


vm started with our hook

[ovirt-users] Keyboard mapping VNC

[Jonas Israelsson]

Greetings.

We are under the impression the the keyboard layout for the VNC-server 
is missing from a vm's xml definition, hence the same default layout is 
always used.


We therefore (just to test) created a small host hook adding a static 
keyboard layout, and with the hook, it seem to work as expected as the 
-k switch to kvm is now populated.


vm started with our hook

  passwd='***' passwdValidTo='2016-04-11T09:21:09'>
network='vdsm-ovirtmgmt' fromConfig='0'/>

  


and one without

  passwdValidTo='1970-01-01T00:00:01'>
network='vdsm-ovirtmgmt' fromConfig='0'/>

  


oVirt Engine Version: 3.6.3.4-1.el7.centos

Is this a known issue ?
