Re: looking for a decent on screen keyboard

Open the xvkbd menu by holding your mouse down over the logo at the bottom right, then release your mouse at 'Property...'.

Select the 'OFF' entry next to Automatic Click then hit Dismiss.

Most programs are configurable.

Alternatively, you might try Matchbox's onscreen keyboard. I have absolutely no idea how I installed Matchbox on here though - probably through yaourt.

Windows was made for looking at success from a distance through a wall of oversimplicity. Linux removes the wall, so you can just walk up to success and make it your own.
