Bug Description

1) When the system is suspended and resumed, Onboard correctly displays the on-screen keyboard, allowing the user to enter their password and log in.

2) However, if the system is power-cycled, Onboard incorrectly displays a black area where the keyboard should be, and ignores user input. Clicking on the 'universal access' icon has no effect.

3) This bug is a show-stopper, because it makes it impossible to run Ubuntu on a tablet unless there is a physical keyboard attached
