The problem with the solution below is that you can still minimize the app and then you are stuck with a white screen with nothing left to do but restart it or re-flash it. Is there a way to let the desktop boot up but stop other applications from loading other than the browser, so essentially you

Hi, These are not UI packages/sources. Browser eal (engine abstraction layer) and maemo-browser-interface are respectively a layer for UI interoperability between engines and an interfacing package for other apps to access/share some browser stuff. regards https://garage.maemo.org/projects/bro

I assume that the browser does not supply any internal means (ie: command line switch option, rpc method) to bring it to fullscreen mode. What about trying to solve the problem form the outside? There is really no way to maximize an application in general (and maemo browser in particular) emulati
