Title:
  onboard keyboard crashes

Status in onboard package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Since the installation of Ubuntu 24.04 the onboard keyboard on the login screen crashes when I click on it.
  Some keys on my Dell keyboard do not function so without the onboard keyboard I need to plug in an external 
  keyboard to type my password which is very inconvenient.  I tried changing the setting from Xinput to GTK
  which did not help.  It worked fine in Ubuntu 22.04.  Once I am logged in I can use the on-screen keyboard
  which although somewhat buggy does not crash.
