One problem is that this is application dependant. I will be at "normal viewing distance" for typing and editing. However I suspect I am not alone in having other apps (eg the mail status icon, movie players, ...) that I view with the chair further away (working on other parts of the desk) or when walking past the display from a distance Nor I suspect will tracking help this - a display that zooms based on user distance is probably going to induce motion sickness rather than joy _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
