VNC keyboard character problem


Recommended Posts

I am having what is probably a very simple problem.

 

I am trying to set up ArchLinux on a VM. When I try to run "genfstab -U /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab" I cannot keyboard input >>. However, I can do << fine. Many of the other keyboard options dont work either. _ + | etc. I have tried three keyboards. All work fine when I run terminal from the server ribbon or anywhere else. Just not in VNC. Anyone offer some advice how to fix the problem?

I am an English speaker in Australia. I have never had this issue before.

 

Actually, I just went and utilised my wife's work laptop running windows and it works fine. So using VNC from the VM tab on a Linux PC doesnt work. But from Windows it works fine. Ill have to download a Windows ISO then.
