+Because I have my USB host port broken on my A101IT and I haven't figured out how to start the onscreen keyboard at the login screen yet. I am using for now automatic login. To enable that we copy /usr/share/defaults.conf to /etc/gdm/gdm.conf and edit that file.

+$ sudo cp ./debianlxdefinal/gdm/defaults.conf ./debianlxdefinal/etc/gdm/gdm.conf
+$ sudo gedit ./debianlxdefinal/etc/gdm/gdm.conf
+}}}

+Now we change at line 48 AutomaticLoginEnable=false to AutomaticLoginEnable=true and at line 49 we fill in our username, in my case debian.
