Hi Sebastien, First of all, thanks for you appreciating our team and we also hope to continue the cooperation with you.
As Onboard has more features than Caribou, there already has been some demand for its integration into GNOME and people have also done some work on it; for example: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33065735/replacing-gnomes-virtual-keyboard-with-onboard-hide-show-via-dbus-doesnt-wor In the meantime, Onboard is shipping an own extension for its integration into GNOME shell. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/amd64/gnome-shell-extension-onboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/onboard/+bug/1538627 The release for zesty does not fully support GNOME shell yet, but since Ubuntu has decided to switch to GNOME Shell and Wayland, these two items have become high priority for us and marmuta is currently actively working on the port. He told me that he made some progress, but he is better placed than me to give you details on it, so I leave it up to him. As far as I know, Lightdm is also being replaced by GDM, which will also be relevant for Onboard... Thanks again for contacting us. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to onboard in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1672465 Title: Onboard doesn't work in Wayland Status in Onboard: In Progress Status in onboard package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Onboard 1.4.1 on Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 Onboard at least shows the keyboard now in GNOME on Wayland.
