Oh... MY! Using Stskeeps' instructions and packages, the Hildon stylus keyboard WORKS in any Debian GTK app running in OS2008. For some reason, the space bar on the keyboard is dead, but...

GTK-only means it works for Leafpad but not for OpenOffice, etc. Also, it seems that AbiWord and the GTK-based browsers don't invoke HIM consistently. When you click in a text field in a web page or on the document in Abiword nothing happens, but they invoke the stylus kbd when you click in the address bar or search dialog.



I still haven't tried it in LXDE yet.
