** Description changed:

- Running Ubuntu ahrdy with latest archive updates. When attempting to run
- onboard in any way, a segmentation fault occurs. However, whenever
- booting the live CD and using the on-screen keyboard accessibility
- profile, onboard loads properly. However, when you shut it down, and
- attempt to run it again, the segmentatino fault occurs.
+ Running Ubuntu hardy with latest archive updates. When attempting to run 
onboard in any way, a segmentation fault occurs. However, whenever booting the 
live CD and using the on-screen keyboard 
+ accessibility profile, onboard loads properly. However, when you shut it 
down, and attempt to run it again, the segmentatino fault occurs.
  
- I need to try on other machines, but it seems like a race condition to
- me. I haven't yet tracked down where the problem likely is just yet.
+ TEST CASE:
+ 1. Make sure the onboard package is installed.
+ 2. Attempt to run onboard, either from GNOME's run dialog, or from a terminal.
+ 3. Onboard should segfault.
+ 4. Install the python-virtkey package from proposed with Chris' patch.
+ 5. Attempt to run onboard again.
+ 6. Onboard should load successfully.
+ 
+ Regression potential:
+ Since the package segfaults, except when being booted via the accessibility 
profile from the live CD, and since geometry information is not needed by 
python-virtkey, as well as onboard being the only package in the archive that 
depends on python-virtkey, the chance of a regression is next to nothing.
+ 
+ Course for Intrepid:
+ As soon as intrepid opens, I will upload a fixed virtkey package.
