Hi George,

Over here I have a Raspberry pi with an 2.2" (320x240) screen and
JiveLite (finaly) up and running.

Steps:
1) Hacked the  WQVGAsmallSkin to run on 320x240 (copied the folder and
renamed it to LCDSkin)
2) Setup the screen on a HDMI device
3) Let PI login automatic when the Pi starts
4) at the end of .bashrc (in /home/pi) added the line 

Code:
--------------------
    sudo SDL_FBDEV=/dev/fb1 /home/pi/jivelite/bin/jivelite &
--------------------


ToDo:
- Better is to create a new user for this action because when I ssh to
the pi the last line in .bashrc is executed again
- finetune the new skin, resize imagefiles
- add buttons and a rotary encoder to emulate keystrokes with pikeyd
(the universal keyboard deamon)

Tried to add a zip with the skin, but I think the zip is to big, so I
only added the .lua files to the zip. Unzip the LCDSkin to
jivelite/share/jive/applets, copy the image-folder from WQVGAsmallSkin
inside the LCDSkin-folder.

Succes!

Cheers,
Kees
