Does anybody know how I can activate Maliit (Plasma’s default on-screen keyboard) under SteamOS Desktop Mode? I have the impression that all my typos are because Steam’s provided keyboard (STEAM+X) is not registering key presses correctly and I want to try an alternative.

/usr/lib/maliit exists but all the usual guides I found don’t work…

    Interested in alternate keyboards too. I have constant issues with the Valve one not appearing etc. and I think it is pretty annoying to have it tied to the Steam process, maybe that makes more sense for the game mode but…

    Same goes for the trackpad settings and bindings being dependent on Steam. For all the work Valve has done on upstream apps building this stuff just into steam seems like a pretty bad design.
