I am building an embedded linux OS for Allwinner's A20 cubieboard 2 using the yocto project. I have so far manged to build a core-image-sato for it which boots perfectly with lxdm login manager.

However, I would like to automatically launch an on-screen keyboard on the touchscreen every time a user is prompted for input, e.g during graphical login.

How do I go about that?

Where do I place a script to do that?

Any help is welcome.

create a RC scripts rc5.d and make sure your script priority and it should run after all you rootfs processes.

I did not tested when the text box called keyboard on,
Better you need to call the keyboard functionality when ever the text box called. 

this is according to you commet

  1. open your text box and in command line use top command and check which process is called when text box opens.
    example:
    root@beaglebone$ top 245 .. .. .. text # this is process name for text box

    Then write script when ever text process is calling keyboard should on
