Check the systax of both files, as Tao suggested. Take special care while editing /etc/gdm/modules/AccessKeyMouseEvents because there are already some lines enabled for Gok (another virtual keyboard) that could be interfering with Florence.

No, you should only edit (or create, if not present): /etc/gdm/custom.conf /etc/gdm/modules/AccessKeyMouseEvents Edit those files, check their syntax and review that there are no duplicated entries for Gok and Florence in the latter, relogin, press mouse button at least for 2 seconds to activate the virtual keyboard... and that should be all :-) Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Good :-) but nor do i get the keyboard. Remember that at login screen you have to press any mouse button to activate the virtual keyboard.
