xrdp+xfce to install virtual machines in KVM - keyboard does not work


rdesktop is not accepting a 3 key combinationcan not install kvm on my ubuntugraceful shutdown of libvirt virtual machines on host shutdownvirt-manager is not working on Ubuntu; there is no pop-upvirtual machine setup does not startGrub boot error on cloned virtual machineinstalled xfce / xRDP on AWS - XKB extension not present onNeed help with USB passthrough on QEMUNetwork not available in kvm virtual machine over KubuntuKVM's Virt-Manager is not able to PXE boot KVM machines from MAAS Server

I recently installed Ubuntu 16.04 on my HP DL360.
This is my test server for my virtulisation platform for testing.
Thus I configured xrdp+xfce for remote access from my windows laptop.
So far so good. I am able to remote access my server from my Windows 10 laptop.



Next I started setting up my first ubuntu desktop virtual machine as a test using virt-manager and I use the console from the xrdp+xfce session. I am using KVM+QEMU as my hpyervisor.
The installation comes to a point where i click next keeping all default options, but now I have to type the username before installation can start and thats where my keyboard does not work. It just basically does not type anything.
In face I did select my keyboard correctly and it just did not work.
So I used the virtual keyboard to continue the installation and it worked out ok and I had a workaround to complete the installation.
Now even to restart I had to manually reset since it does not accept the 'enter' required after removing the cdrom.
However, now the OS is up in the guest but I cannot log in since I cannot type anything using my windows keyboard when connected from the xrdp session. This means that for each virtual machine I install, I have to go to the server, connect the keyboard, mouse and monitor and do it there to setup the ssh connection and then I can use the virtual machine.



Anyone has any ideas as why is this happening and if there is a way I can connect via xrdp or VNC and not face this issue while installing the Virtual Machines?

          I ran into same issue myself, open virtual machine manager, go to edit > preferences > New VM. For graphics type change from systems default (spice) to VNC. After doing this you should be able to type in your VM.
