Hi all,

Is there any way to have multiple xterms from the desktop icon? If I run xterm and then type osso-xterm& I get a new xterm window, but if I click on the icon it just brings the existing one into the foreground instead of starting a new one.

Cheers,

Ben

Well, once you have one xterm open, you can tap the part of the screen with the upside down blue triangle (top middle of screen), then tap the "new" button.

There's a limit of 4 though, as there's only 4 VTs on the N900.

Alternatively just type Shift + Ctrl + X.

That is quite easy to rectify, and will be FIXED in PR1.2.
