Hi all. I'm trying to track down some digitizer errors (presses not registering, presses registering in the wrong place) and would like to uninstall Debian. Can I just do it through the application manager, or do I need to do anything fancy?
I don't think my scripts are your problem, but you should just be able to uninstall Easy Debian and things should be "as they were". You shouldn't have to delete the big image file; hopefully you'll re-install Easy Debian and start using it again...

Thanks much. It's a weird error. Taps seem to register about two inches to the left and slightly down from where I tap.
I need to make the scripts non-dependent on gxmessage, too, it would seem. I forgot about gxmessage when I suggested that people use it to fix the broken Diablo SSU.
Xnest is the only thing that comes to mind; you could run xnest with scrollbars (does xephyr do scrollbars, since it's already working?)
Well, it seems that the current version of Xnest starts up, but I can't seem to find anything about scrollbars. There's no mention of them in the command line options, nor does Googling do anything.
Benson, can you help out here? How do you get scrollbars in Xnest?
I remember I used to "use" Xnest with scrollbars, and I thought the scrollbars came from Xnest. Of course, I never really did have much use for it; just cool to run a different desktop environment in there.
Maybe what I'm really remembering is running an Xnest in FVWM2, which can toss scrollbars on any window. It was some years ago last I messed with it, so that's a likely explanation. Sorry about the false lead.
Drat! I was really excited there for a while. Scrollbars would be so cool. I would love to have a big virtual desktop with a vertical scrollbar, just like I do with VNC.
Wouldn't a virtual desktop still be possible without scrollbars?? You'd have to click and drag to move the mouse but the screen should move with the mouse... same as a virtual desktop on a full size computer..

Yeah, I wondered about if that was possible as well - doesn't the X configuration file have something for resolution and virtual resolution? But since we're using TinyX..
Doesn't one of the alternative OS projects have a Xomap that's X.org based or the likes? I heard a rumour that Freemantle might have this..
Meh, Xnest is even flakier than Xephyr. The mouse pointer keeps wanting to move windows instead of select buttons or menus or whatever... Very frustrating! And it doesn't even have a third axis (pressure) listed for its pointer. At least Xephyr taunts and teases me by offering a third axis in pressure-sensitive apps... but then ignoring it.
I contacted Xephyr's writer about this:

Not without modifying the source Im afraid. It shouldn't be too difficult however.
Hear that, coder-types? "It shouldn't be too difficult". Go and make it so!
