Depending on the X server version and user-defined key mappings, certain keyboard types may work. However, if Workstation is running remotely (regardless of the X server used) or locally with an X server not from XFree86, only a limited number of non-US keyboards is supported. On a Linux host, Workstation should map all keys to the appropriate keyboard type when the host is using an X server from XFree86 and you are running locally on the host.
