I just found the following in the man page: """ IMPORTANT NOTE: When invoking xvkbd from display managers such as XDM, GDM, etc., always use xvkbd with -secure option or you will have serious security risk. """ Can you verify if running with -secure fixes the issue for you? I assume this text means that upstream is aware of the issue and that it isn't going to get fixed there. I don't want to have Debian specific patch if we need to carry it forever. Paul
