He implemented mobins fvkbd (http://git.moblin.org/cgit.cgi/fvkbd/) as an experiment in Sugar. Here's the .iso he made with it added in (virtual keyboard device icon is in the frame): http://dev.laptop.org/~sayamindu/sugar-vkbd-test/sugar-vkbd-test.iso There is a screen cast of it at: http://dev.laptop.org/~sayamindu/sugar_vkbd_multi.ogv And the feature wiki page is at: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Onscreen_Keyboard Also note that the Dextrose images have the gnome accessibility virtual keyboard (enable it from the My Settings control panel). Its visual theme is not very Sugar like, but I think it may be a better choice as is has all keys available, the vkbd seems more for casual phone type messaging use (missing lots of symbols you would need if you wanted to do a programming type task, even missing some basic maths characters). I'm not sure how well the gnome virtual keyboard is to localise, that would be rather critical to make sure it works easily for many language keyboards.
