I had some problems with the status line being too long for my screen and not being able to see the end of it, so I made some small changes to the code to print the status line on 2 lines. It's in main.c and just uncomment this line:

// #define USE_TWO_STATUS_LINES

(to uncomment a line, delete the 2 forward slashes) This line is currently at line 248 of main.c, but that will probably change in the future. After uncommenting the line, recompile. If you uncomment the line and then at a later date do a 'cvs update', CVS is smart enough to update the file and leave this line uncommented.

If you read through the whole section near where this line is there are 3 other options for 640x480 screens. To enable all 4 options, just uncomment one line, //#define LCD640x480TOUCH

Here's a link to a screenshot showing the new layout.

This particular computer is a Xbox that has Xebian installed on it. It's a software hack, not the hardware one. Although some people have claimed to have gotten the Xbox to run in a higher resolution than 640x480, it's never worked for me. I've always figured that it was a lack of memory problem. Xastir runs in the meager 64 Meg of physical ram that the Xbox has.

If someone wants to move this screenshot over to the screenshots website, that's fine.

Thanks,
