So where do I place this command?

[PaulBennett]

I need accss to the on screen keyboard (xvkbd) when my Acer Iconia W700 reaches the user login. I have read quite a lot and am still hunting for the path Mageia3 takes when it boots up. I have tried starting Xvkbd in various places without it appearing in time for the login (where you get the "Welcome to Localhost" screen) but it looks like I might need a Daemon to call it up at the appropriate time. One switch on the slate gives a four character sequence and that would be easily detectable if I were running a Daemon at the appropriate moment. I am also asking elsewhere about the Windows buttons on the slate (which so far I haven't discovered how it is sensed :-: not a keyboard code).

Am I on the right line of thinking here? Create a Daemon and let it get fired up in the initialisation of the run-levels? Which one? Or do I have to place the command in a specific place in the boot-up sequence.
