how does your usb device list look like?

Might be that you have to pass through a whole usb controller for it to work.

Did it work in windows?

Ahh... Now I see 

You are running the VM's through vnc and not passing through a graphics card, right?

Then edit your VM, click the basic view so it says advanced view in the top right corner and find the vnc option. There should be a vnc keyboard option. Choose Swedish and start the VM again.

Hi everybody,

 

sorry for digging up this old thread, but I have the exact same problem. When opening VMs via VNC the keyboard map is all messed up. When enabling Advanced View of VM settings, the option for changing the keymap does not appear. Is this feature hidden somewhere else or was it removed?

 

Thanks a lot.

Switch on advanced in the top right corner.

It's not in the VM settings, but in the VM template. You need to do it for every VM you want to change.
