Nathaniel, Thanks for the detailed answers.

I changed 2048x2048 in xpra/scripts/server.py to 3520x1200 and that fixed issue #1 from my original post. (Strange behavior when running in Nvidia's twinview). Should the maximum resolution be made a parameter? I've not looked into it yet, but it seems like either passing in the size or getting it from an environment variable should solve the problem for those that run large desktops. >> 2) Minor issue, weird sloppy focus mouse behavior behavior.

Most of the time it just works. If I can find a way to reliably repeat it I'll set you logs. This problem is exhibited both when it run xpra directly and through freenx. When it starts to exhibit the problem I can just grab the title bar and move the window a little bit and the problem goes away. >> 3) Jerkiness and frequent momentary stalling, which appears to the be >> issue mentioned here: http://partiwm.org/browser/README.xpra#L214 >> >> With a VTE like xfce's terminal, I don't notice any problems.

(Yes, for the terminals I could use screen, but with xpra it is so much more convenient, when I reconnect they all reappear). I have a cable modem internet connection. I decided to try it again and Geany seems to be alright now as far as the jerkiness. I might look into bandwidth shaping. But even so, when it was consisitently causing me problems, the problems went away when I started running xpra through freenx. Once again, thanks. ~Dwight _______________________________________________ Parti-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.partiwm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/parti-discuss
