Working with Libertine Desktop Apps (without real keyboard and mouse) on Aquaris tablet needs a good virtual keyboard with arrows, PgUp, Tab, Ctrl (or even virtual mouse), that can be always on top. It will be great to use virtual keyboard from Terminal App with any Libertine Desktop App! But maybe, anybody has experience to use Florence or Onboard virtual keyboard with Libertine? Or some other keyboard? Which one be suitable?

Let me combine comments and some piece of info from Internet and write answer. Matchbox-keyboard configuration is buggy, but it was possible to create a suitable config file only with arrows, some navigation keys and small height. Example of configuration see there. Place it in file

~/.cache/libertine-container/my-container/rootfs/home/phablet/.matchbox/keyboard.xml

Screenshot of usage:

At first we should start app (like Evince or Firfox), where we want to use navigation arrows. After that we should run matchbox-keyboard from terminal as Bjarne described:

DISPLAY=:0.0 libertine-container-manager exec -c "matchbox-keyboard" --id my-container

Right now I don't know how to create single launch file (.desktop) to run the matchbox-keyboard. And only one window with matchbox-keyboard is supported now.
