I use a touch screen PC (archlinux + lxde).I want to login with lxdm and enter password with florence. I tried to add /usr/bin/florence in /etc/lxdm/LoginReady but it didn't work.Any suggestions?
How to enable on screen keyboard with lxdm?
arch linux;lxde
I was just looking into this - and I tried the same thing: created /etc/lxdm/LoginReady from scratch, chmod +x-ed it, and inserted a logger statement in the script. The logger message does appear in /var/log/syslog - however, neither onboard nor xvkbd can start (and they can break the logger message too). It turns out, this maybe is not down to lxdm, but to lightdm - in particular, lightdm-gtk-greeter on my device (see also Is it possible to configure LightDM to load Caribou for the on screen keyboard, replacing onboard? - Ask Ubuntu and Customising the LightDM GTK Greeter | Arcticdog's Kennel). Somebody apparently made a patch for Arch, and posted it at Bug #905809 PATCH lightdm-gtk-greeter on screen keyboard suppor... : Bugs : LightDM GTK+ Greeter; unfortunately the Ubuntu folks didn't seem to be interested. But in any case, it seems one has to patch all the way down to C code, which is rather unfortunate...
