Unfortunately, it seems that the approach you took, which also subsequently led me to discover methods using gconf to specify login screen options, does not work anymore in the newer Gnome. Overall, it seems the new settings API and dconf are somewhat still premature and incomplete with apparently related options deprecated without replacements. Apparently, in older Gnome versions, there would had been an accessibility option at login to enable onscreen keyboard. So it seemed that I might had saved some time if I opt to go with F18/F19 instead. But since I already downloaded a bunch of distros in anticipation that F20 might not work on a keyboard-less tablet, I decided to give one of them with an older release date (hoping to avoid the new Gnome) a try before downloading F18 and F19. With reluctance, I have to say the older Ubuntu 13.10 worked right out of the box including accessibility options even during installation. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
