To answer my own question, all I needed to do was to change setVideoMode(800, 480, 0, false) to setVideoMode(1024, 768, 0, false) in JogglerSkinApplet.lua. No recompile necessary, the layout is not perfect in terms of spacing, but good enough for use on my old laptop's screen and fully responisve to mouse/keybaord. Yet to purchase FLIRC. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Krisbee's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=59080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98156 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
