Re: [Xen-users] how to press ctrl+alt+del on windows2003

[Mark Nielsen <mnielsen@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Here is a link to the virt-manager FAQ

http://virt-manager.et.redhat.com/faq.html

and here's the specific part of the FAQ:

How do you send special key strokes to the guest console?
   If trying to press |"Ctrl+Alt+F1"| to switch virtual consoles in a
   guest, it is very likely that the local X server will intercept the
   keystroke and switch consoles on the host machine instead. To work
   around this problem, the virtual console window has the idea of
   'sticky' keys. If you press a modifier key 3 times in a row, it will
   stick on until the next non-modifier key is released. So to send
   |"Ctrl+Alt+F1"| to the guest, one can use the sequence |"Ctrl Ctrl
   Ctrl Alt+F1"|


Just thought I'd provide the link to the FM ;)
