Hi Andre,

First, start kvkbd-trinity, then it will stay in the notification area. You just have to click on it hen you need it. I am currently doing a similar setup on my newly received Sagem Spiga mini laptop. It has a keyboard, but the layout is hard to understand and very strange, so I will rely on the touch screen kb.

I am almost sure that TDE doesn't support multi-touch features at this moment, but it might be provided by Xorg, so I might be wrong on this one.
