Hi,
After setting the keyboard layout [1] in the AppVM, everything works correctly. However, if you change the NetVM of that AppVM to "none" using Qube Manager, and then change it again to another NetVM (for example, sys-firewall), some minor settings will be reset — for example, the keyboard layout may revert or reset. In that case, you will need to use the command from [1] again.
This issue occurs when changing the NetVM to "none" and then back to "sys-firewall".
