Right; a real keyboard won't change the scan code, but it seems that
European keyboards have this
I've been reading up here:
http://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/linux/kbd/scancodes-1.html
And man, what a mess keyboards are! Worse than floppy controllers.
According to that site, the scan code for \ should be 0x2b, so why does
xev say the keycode is 51? Is keycode something else entirely from scan
code

Oy vey! Just for fun they decided to add 8 eh?

No, I haven't actually tried to build it from sources myself yet so I
just found the source file that handles the keyboard, saw a bunch of
scancode translation stuff in it, did
Hello, I recently upgraded my Xen server from Ubuntu 16.04 to 18.04 and
am no longer able to type a | over vnc to the xen vms. When I press \
it works, but when I hold down shift and press \ which should generate a

Why do you say that? I would say that virtio means use
paravirtualized IO rather than emulating some real hardware. Whether
that ends up being done with

It seems the installer does not consider virtio devices when doing its
search. It also seems the installer does not have the virtio-scsi
module, and it seems a bit wasteful to go through a layer of scsi
emulation.
Shouldn't qemu at least warn you that the media=argument does nothing on
virtio dev
