[libvirt-users] Scientific Linux as guest. Can't install with virt-manager because key "tab" in use
Please help, I can't install Scientific Linux 6.3 with virt-manager because the key tab switches between kvm windows. I urgently need tab to go on in install process. see screenshot: http://aiai.de/foren/scientificLinux_tab.png Even in fullscreen mode tab changes to kvm window and not to button "continue" for installation process. please help, I want to install scientific linux as kvm guest. I'm running debian wheezy as host. thx Eckard

Use your mouse to click inside the emulated terminal environment, and your keyboard input will go there.

thx. Where is the "emulated terminal environment"? The one I made screenshot of? http://aiai.de/foren/scientificLinux_tab.png I clicked anywhere inside, but anywhere the key "tab" changed between kvm windows. Eckard

Darned if I know, then. Perhaps something is grabbing your keyboard input and doing something untoward with it. Try closing the virt-manager window and opening it again.
thx you were right. I worked yesterday with vncviewer on a remote machine. vncviewer grabs the "tab" key and sends it to kvm instead of to "emulated terminal environment". I tried it here on my local machine and it works out of the box. thx again, Eckard
