Hi, I seem to have a good day, I just discovered another major missing feature:
As I said my monitor can do 1600x1200 this is wonderful, but not for presentaitons because unfortunately most projectors can only operate at 1024x768 or lower. I can of course set the screen resolution lower but then x11 gives me a viewport in which I can scroll around. This is all fine but not if you want to make a presentation! Obviously the presentation should fill the whole screen! After months where I could not do presentations with linux I finally found now the solution on this website: http://www.richard.neill.hemscott.net/a22p-mdk9-1.html xrandr -s 1024x768 disables the &%!!%ç* viewport!!! So you basically startup your presentations with: 'xrandr -s 1024x768; /usr/lib/openoffice/program/simpress ~/mytalk.sxi ; xrandr -s 1600x1200' You need to change the numbers according to your monitor naturally... bones (happy now)
