Title: Too Large Windows And X Display Redirection
Post by: sommi on February 12, 2005, 05:41:10 am

Hello!

I have been using the excellent pdaXrom (kathrin-rc8) for quite some time
now and I have some questions:

The windows of some applications, such as Firefox or Thunderbird are
too large to fit on the screen. They are so large that I cannot reach the
resizing controls with the stylus.
How can I resize the windows so that they fit the screen. Is there
a key combination?

Also: How can i redirect the X display to my desktop computer so that
I can login to the zaurus via ssh, start (for instance) firefox on the Z and
have the application window of firefox appear on my desktop?

Thanks!

In RC9 Control-Alt m maximize the window.
Otherwise maintain Alt pressed and drag the window (I think this one is in the FAQ on www.pdaxrom.org)

I rotated the screen and that allowed me to reach the rest of the options in the firefox settings screen.
