Hi Fred.

The monitor is now running at 1280x1024.  I am using the openbox window
manager.  The display is way bigger that the LCD and when an application
is minimized the icon goes way off the screen and I can't get it back.

        Monitor         "Sun-x7205a"

#xdm won't run if depth is set to 24

Just a guess: you're running at less than 1280x1024.

You should check the log file (/var/log/Xorg.0.log). The actual resoulution is
logged there.

Hello,
Screensaver or not is really ok with me but are there any more suggestions that might solve my display problem? I am reasonably sure the LCD is running at 1280x1024. Does anyone know specifically how openbox is told the display size to use? I could then ask on the sparc-debian mailing list how to find out if this is working correctly. (Debian 6.0 on Sun Ultra5/10 with Sun x7205a LCD)

I have three other questions about openbox:

What is a "docking application" as discussed in the documentation?

What is the difference between using openbox or openbox-session to start openbox? I don't think the documentation is very clear on this.

What is the difference between starting some applications through .Xsession before openbox is started vs. having openbox start them?

Best regards,
Fred
