HHKB and VirtualBox

(1/2) > >>

bigpook:
I am using VirtualBox as my VM and an HHKB keyboard.

When VirtualBox has the focus you need to hit the Right Control key to break the focus. There is no Right Control key on the HHKB.

I am missing something?

tamasrepus:
No, you're not—there's no control key on the right side of the board.

VirtualBox lets you redefine the break focus key. I personally use the right-side Windows key (I never use it otherwise).

I feel pretty stupid now. But thanks, I found the setting.

yep, or just hook up another keyboard for when you need the ctrl key.

One of these would be perfect:
