keyboard

Im runing Solaris 10 - but im having problems with the keyboard.

Instead of - i get /, and instead of y i get z, etc. I tried changing every option in the menu "Keyboard Behaviour". I also tried changing kmdconfig from xorg to xsun, but then the graphics goes all wild and ugly - although the keyboard works fine then. Also cant change resolution in xsun mode.

By the way, im runing Solaris from Vmware, but i doubt this has anything to do with this.
