For the record, xkbd (with no special layout) has been working quite well; but there's a trick! You connect a BT input device (kbd or mouse), then start xkbd. Clearly, I should determine what runs on connection to fix this, then just run that; but too lazy.

I'm getting invalid magic on the .gz; probably b/c I don't have wget, and Microb thinks it's an html. If someone could zip them and attach it, I'd be grateful.

When i hit minimize, it shifts xvkbd to the right (mostly offscreen), but doesn't minimize and i don't see a maximize button.
I expect that'll be fixed soon?
(edit2) you'll probably need to install
libxmu6 (apt-get install libxmu6)
and unpack libXaw3d.tgz to /usr/lib and run ldconfig
(edit: btw, wget is available for the tablets)

I know wget's available, but right now I have broken my apt, so I didn't feel like going after it... (I don't even know if it's in a repo or just a deb, and I know that you can manually pull debs out of repos and dpkg them, but I just don't care enough, since I'm reflashing (and this time putting OS on SD, etc.) in a couple days, when I know I'll have time for re-installing everything I need.)
Yeah, I'm lazy. Thanks anyway!

btw. 'hide button also works as 'unhide' but i didn't wanted to make that button too wide, also it works as expected, because it doesn't show in the nav-bar so after real minimizing it will be gone (unless you also use my kcinconsbox or some other util . i have thought to test how well 'minimize by moving mostly offscreen works' and i'm happy about the result, it's fast and doesn't require recreating window

Could I see a screenshot of this?
Also, is it possible to change the layout and position of the keyboard?
If so, where's a good place to find documentation on how to do so?
Thanks!

ok, here are some, and yes, layout is flexible, but i only added 'hide' button because it's fine for me
as for documentation, probably looking at example layout files. they're in the source package, i have put some of them in the same place as binary, for example german layout:
mkdir /etc/X11/app-defaults/
wget -O/etc/X11/app-defaults/XVkbd-german http://mrrau.dyndns.org:23280/n800/x...Vkbd-german.ad
then you will have it selectable as a runtime menu option

ok, i have managed to hack xvkbd enough to be usefull, enjoy and comment!
installation:
wget -O/usr/local/bin/xvkbd.gz http://mrrau.dyndns.org:23280/n800/xvkbd/xvkbd.gz
gzip -d /usr/local/bin/xvkbd.gz
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/xvkbd
wget -O/usr/share/applications/hildon/xvkbd.desktop http://mrrau.dyndns.org:23280/n800/xvkbd/xvkbd.desktop
I tried launching xvbkd from within an xterm and see,
Code:
~ $ xvkbd Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859- 1" to type FontStruct Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1" to t ype FontStruct Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1" to type FontStruct Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-10-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1" to type FontStruct xvkbd: Mode_switch not available as a modifier xvkbd: AltGr can't be used Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-lucida-bold-i-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1" to type FontStruct ~ $

ps. why another osk? because xkbd is a little unstable right now and i wanted something more reliable
ps2. international layouts aren't included for now (because it's too late and i will package whole thing properly soon)
ps3. [update 2015-12-20] links are inactive, i've attached the files to this post
