Thanks for incorporating the function keys too. I'll give it try.

I look forward to hearing how it works. I made sure all standard keys were included and paired each key with it's shifted key. I just need to somehow fit Home/End, Insert/Page Up, Delete/Page Down in yet another row.
I was able to get Ctrl-F1 working even under OS 2008.
CTRL-F1 Show the keymapper configuration screen

Any idea about mapping these to the hardkeys on the N810? That's like the #1 drawback. Everything else is working like a charm.

Greetings again OSEmuTech!
Okay, first response.
Have you thought about having the function keys being displayed like that in a home computer? I was thinking of possibly launching a 2nd Xkbd that would cover the top, unused portion of the screen as well, covering up the toolbar applets and such. I'm not sure of this, but I think there's enough room to have all 12 function keys to fit in that area.
I haven't tried this myself, so it's not really a suggestion. I mean, it might look good. It might not. Just thought I'd throw out that idea and hear your opinions on it.
Well, here's ArnimS's post earlier in regards about the whole xkbd -geometry -1 -1 weirdness:
I'm no programmer, but it seems, mathematically at least, that if you removed the highlighted green "+1"s that Xkbd could be launched properly without the need for negative values and breaking the Minimize/Maximize feature.
If that doesn't work. Would it be possible to "roll" over these values?
Something to the effect of
xkbd - geometery +801+481 or
xkbd - geometery +32769+32769
I don't have Xkbd installed now, but do you kind of understand this concept? It would still be an absolute value and perhaps it wouldn't crash the program using a method such as this.
Anyway, I like the new layout much better than your first post. You nailed the Number keys and it looks much more functional.
Good job dude!

Problem is the "minimize" button (>>) shifts the keyboard position by a relative to "minimize" it - needs to use an absolute.
from xkbd.c
if(iMode==1)
{
XResizeWindow(display, win, xkbd_get_width(kb), xkbd_get_height(kb));
XMoveWindow(display,win,xorgpos+worg-xkbd_get_width(kb), yorgpos+horg-xkbd_get_height(kb));
}
else
{
xkbd_resize(kb, an_event.xconfigure.width*0.52*wkbscale, an_event.xconfigure.height*1.2*hkbscale );
worg=xkbd_get_width(kb);
horg=xkbd_get_height(kb);
XResizeWindow(display, win, xkbd_get_width(kb), xkbd_get_height(kb));
if(xorgpos==0 || yorgpos==0)
{
xorgpos=wscr-worg+1;
yorgpos=hscr-horg+1;
}
XMoveWindow(display,win,xorgpos, yorgpos);
xkbd_repaint(kb);
}
Not sure how that'd be fixed - maybe cme can look at it?

Let me know of any suggestions.

I built a new OS2008 version of xkbd. Might be more reliable than the older build. This version strips out the docs and manuals, and adds my bottom xkbd layout file as well as Addison/OSEmuTech's vertical layout.
