Fixed upstream now: http://hg.fedorahosted.org/hg/python-virtinst/rev/2bde513dcd9e Latest QEMU works best when no keymap is specified, since gtk-vnc supports a QEMU extension which makes manual keymap unnecessary. This also fixes -k none brokenness. Fix built in python-virtinst-0.500.5-1.el6 Verified with libvirt-0.8.7-1.el6.x86_64 and python-virtinst-0.500.5-1.el6
1.Run /usr/bin/virt-install --connect qemu:///system --name m2-test-3 --ram 768 --cdrom /root/Downloads/RHEL5.5-Server-20100322.0-i386-DVD.iso --os-type linux --disk path=/root/test1,size=8 --vnc --noreboot --debug
2.
Look at the output log
Wed, 19 Jan 2011 16:42:47 DEBUG Generated install XML:
....
<input type='mouse' bus='ps2'/>
<graphics type='vnc' port='-1'/>
<console type='pty'/>

No keymap is generated when not setting -k option.
Verification is passed.
