I did not know of that option, may have to try it though things look pretty good for me (see https://imgur.com/a/rFPqQHi) Admittedly I don't look at that screen as often as I look at the one zoomed in via remote desktop, but I set it up so that the other licensed hams in the house don't need to know my password to unlock my computer if they want to look at APRS or send a message, they can use the touchscreen and/or bluetooth keyboard and the rPi handles the rest. I could upgrade to a larger screen, but it would probably be a waste since it would sit there doing nothing but take up space most of the time. -- Steve Huston, W2SRH - https://srhuston.net “And no one sings me lullabies, and no one makes me close my eyes, and so I throw the windows wide and call to you across the sky.” - Pink Floyd, “Echoes” _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://xastir.org/mailman/listinfo/xastir
