@wegank I'm testing it right now on x86_64; will be back as soon as it finish rebuilding everything.

nice, I was looking for this. thanks for making the PR. Does anyone experience weird issue on keyboard? It seems more sticky than version 17. E.g. Many characters was entered when I hit only 1 char. I was using version 18 with the prl-tools from ver 17. maybe that is why. Hope this PR would also fix that.

I may confirm that I have another wired input into macOS 10.5 without any Parallels Tools :( It changes case from upper and lower in random way. Seems it is a bug.

@SuperSandro2000 it's done

[sandangel]

can we delay this PR until we can see no more issue? Probably after another kernel/paralell update

[wegank]

@sandangel Does the issue persist when Parallels Tools are not installed, as in the case of @catap?

Personally, I'm not experiencing those issues on my laptop, and I would like to see a minimal configuration that reproduces the keyboard issue. I guess it could be related to locales, e.g. using en_US instead of en_US.UTF-8.

let me investigate on my side a bit

@sandangel I suggest to merge ASAP and address an issue when we have it ;)
