VMWare Keyboard problem

[framling]

Hi,

I could never get those fixes to work on my 8.10. I've tried pretty much 
everything i could fiddle with. Most other have got them working, so I
must be doing something wrong. anyway...

Since my VMs are mostly linux/unix, I've settled for booting them up, 
ssh'ing in, and exporting DISPLAY and then running the desired app 
through ssh.
