In fact it is still occurring, without reinstalling anything, but not
in all the cases that it formerly was. For instance the virtual screen
appears when I start synaptic and it wants me to type in the password,
but not when I search something inside synaptic, where formerly it did
occur.
On reinstalling caribou and caribou-antler, the small virtual keyboard
also appears (and won't go away again).
