You can still use xkbd, but it now blocks the view with 800x480 resolution. But there's now a small gap in the right lower corner that could be used for xkbd, but it would probably require a new layout. I can compile a 640x480 version too if you want. If you made changes to the layout, just copy it somewhere, upgrade and then copy it back. Right click is a must in my opinion so it's well worth the upgrade.
