Virtual Keyboard Does Not Appear on Login Screen
Occasionally, the virtual keyboard is not displayed on the login screen. To solve this, restart the
X server by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Backspace or press the appropriate key on your Tablet PC (if
you use a slate model without integrated keyboard). If the virtual keyboard still does not show,
connect an external keyboard to your slate model and log in using the hardware keyboard.
