Greetings all;

I probably should have sent this to the emc-users list in the first 
place...

The *buntu references have disappeared when it was copied to the configs 
tree.

But nothing else has changed, so here is a paste of its startup output:

So what do I need to do, after I've read the fine manual, to fix the 
reported errors/warnings? I have real keyboards for instance.

In the settings screen, all keyboard related checkboxes are greyed out. 
The Fine Manual mentions <onboard> but doesn't say what section it 
belongs in or even an example other than a bash script to set the 
keyboard profile and language.  I'm going to install the matchbox 
virtual, and see if it can find it. But synaptic wants to update enough
stuff I might as well reboot because kmail is in the list of replaced 
packages.

Thanks everybody.

I have since this original post, installed the matchbox-keyboard package.  
It finds that on startup, however a couple lines later:

No option 'show_keyboard_on_file_selection' in section: 'DEFAULT'

but I can now check the checkboxes for keyboard use, and they seem to 
work. But I can't get a file selection requester except in the  jump to  
option in the settings.

But it doesn't name the faulty file, and a grep -R for DEFAULT in the 
config directory does not find a [DEFAULT] section.

So where/which file do I add this [DEFAULT] section?

Thanks all.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
