We have a Kiosk based web service here at Keele for reading email and using our library systems. I use linux and xfree with Netscape 4.
I have two problems that have arisen with the latest versions of the software and I hope you can help. 1. Buttons Because we use Netscape I disable all the window furniture and try to stop the students from starting anything using hotkeys or the mouse. In earlier xfree's I simply said "buttons 1" in the pointer section and xfree duly ignored the right mouse button. However xfree 4.2 (from redhat 7.3 updates) seems to ignore the 'options "Buttons" "1"' Has this option been disabled if xfree finds that there are really 5 buttons on the mouse? Is there a neater way of stopping button 3 from having any effect? (I tried xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 1 1 4 5" which seemed to be what I wanted but this isn't allowed for some reason) 2. Keyboard Focus Our Kiosk netscape runs xfree without any window manager and has a netscape set to cover the screen. This works well for netscape 4 but netsape 6,7 and mozilla 1 all seem to start without any keyboard focus if there's no window manager. Does anyone know why and how I can fix the problem? Many thanks. Jon Knight _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
