jagerdog, Go here and first ( http://pupnik.de/xkbd.html ) install the libxpm4 first. You might need to be in red pill first to install these lib's. Then once that is installed go ahead and install xkbd. I just installed and it works great. To test xkbd first go into x-term and type xkbd after you type in sudo gainroot. The little xkbd keyboard will pop right up and you can start typing away. If this is all new to you do a search on these forums for x-term, sudo gainroot, becomeroot, red pill mode, etc... Hope this helps. Dan
