Re: xfwm instead of matchbox-wm on debian?
This is my current zhone-session file -- #!/bin/sh #zhone exec startxfce4 matchbox-keyboard-toggle #exec matchbox-window-manager -use_titlebar yes exec xfwm4 -- Now the matchbox keyboard works and xvkbd is also useable when i change the matchbox-keyboard-toggle script to invoke this virtual keyboard. Only problem is that now some windows are bigger than the screen and i have to move them to see all of it because they can't be resized. But most other windows now can be resized to my liking. :) Ciao, Rainer Marcel wrote: What does your zhone-session look like exactly?

You have to replace the matchbox-wm line in zhone-session by xfwm4 to start the xfce-wm. I also experiment with it at the moment but i got one big problem.
