The situation is the same as mentioned in my post of 25Aug21. Onboard
OSK works in X11 but not in Wayland. This time, though, the Onboard
window doesn't close down in Wayland.

Whatever is being used in Ubuntu 22 is far inferior to Onboard.
X11 is being deprecated.
I imagine that devs knew that Wayland would replace X11 in Ubuntu LTS
Time to decide what you will all do.
in 4 years Will Onboard be abandoned
I wouldn't say it's "policy" but it is the current situation.
The GNOME screen keyboard does not use Caribou. It is built into GNOME
Shell. It has far less features than Onboard. The GNOME implementation
is currently more about basic keyboard access on a touch-only device
instead of as a
@ Jeremy Bicha,
Is "Won't fix" for Onboard in Wayland still the policy, or is there some
development?
What about the current (in Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS) screen keyboard that we
get via gnome-control-center? Is it still based on Caribou? Are there
features from Onboard in it? (It looks like Caribou
Onboard doesn't send key presses to gedit or any other desired window
and instead closes down. This happens only on Wayland windowing system.
It works fine in X11. I am working on Ubuntu 20.04.3 Gnome 3.36.8. I
have been using Onboard since Ubuntu 12.04 stable release. In release
18.04, I had
I don't know if I'm running Wayland, but it is the most recent version
of Kubuntu as it comes out of the box. Unfortunately Onboard crashes
the entire desktop. If you try to type one Onboard french character,
the desktop turns black and you eventually are brought to the login
screen and have to

Let me give you an update on the current state of Onboard in gnome-
shell.
First, things changed - a lot. The work is happening in a new independent
project OnboardOSK at

This is basically a fork of Onboard, written mainly in C++. There's no Python
involved
Personally, I would vote for Onboard to be integrated into GNOME
upstream instead of Caribou.
Caribou is very deficient compared to Onboard and has not really been
actively developed much. (There was a GSOC proposal to do some things
but I am guessing the student could probably end up working

I did, and came to the conclusion that fully replacing caribou with the
existing Onboard is close to impossible. That's mainly because applications
don't have access to the activities and authentication
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:
Could somebody from the onboard team gives a status update there of how
onboard work with gnome-shell and under wayland?
Did anyone try to replace caribou with onboard in gnome-shell, is that
doable/easy? How do they compare usability/feature wise?
