Title: onboard: add haptic feedback Status in Onboard on-screen keyboard: Confirmed Status in Ubuntu on modern Smartphones: New Status in “onboard” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: onboard I am using onboard as input method on a phone with capacitive touchscreen. Since these touchscreens are not very precise it is good to get a firm feedback from the device to know a button was pressed. In windows mobile (stock operating system on this device), a very short vibration pulse will be triggered each time a button on the included on screen keyboard is pressed. In Linux vibration is triggered by writing the vibration duration in ms to a sysfs node on the device. E.g. this could be inserted where the button will change color on press. As there are other mechanism like LED or whatever else is available on other devices to think of it would be nice to make this dynamic. E.g. add an input field where the user can put a command to execute on button press.
