Description
Goodday,
I have retroarch installed on a powkiddy x55. When I run a dos game, in the one dos core the controller doesn't work, but the virtual keyboard is. In the other dos core the controller does work, but there is no virtual keyboard. For the gameplay it's best to have both working. For savegames you need a numeric keyboard.
Please add virtual keyboard on both dos cores.
thx

Research direction
Start by identifying the two DOS cores involved and locating how each currently handles controller input and the virtual keyboard. Confirm the requirements for gameplay input and a numeric keyboard for savegames. The work is done when both DOS cores provide the requested virtual keyboard functionality alongside their existing controller behavior.
