If in landscape (switched using xrandr) the keyboard takes up almost the whole screen (in X and Y) so entering URL's in midori is almost impossible as you cant see the field to select it. I used omnewrotate at one point but it wasnt very stable or usable - I'd rather rotate the screen when "I" say so :)
see http://wdk.dyndns.org/freerunner/screen.png - note that I can get a very little more screen using full screen mode in midori - but not a lot. For the mic setting, then it looks like I'll have to make some test calls to optimise and then reboot - thanks for the hint.
