Hello,
After having used bhyve for servers for quite a while, I have just
started using it with the graphical console using vnc a few days ago.
This stuff is awesome. Having a native solution for virtualization on
FreeBSD is great.
However, I had some trouble with keyboard mappings and the vnc based
console. I guess that having a non-US keyboard is what causes problems.
The first thing I always do after installing a new operating system is
fetching my ssh public keys via https. I had a hard time finding out how
to type '/' and I never found a way to type '-'.
I know that this stuff is hard to fix. What I am hoping is, that it
could be easy to add the '/*-+' keys on the numeric part of the keyboard
to the mapping. Those are often helpful and I think they map the same
way on all keyboards.
/Christian
