RE: remmina in awesone - Different behaviour for RDP of Windows XP and Windows 7

2013-02-13 Thread David Sorkovsky

Thanks!

I hadn't tried that - Now I have - It worked!


To get it to happen automagically I added this in the signals...

-- Automatically float certain windows
if c.name == david2 then
awful.client.fullscreen.set(c, true)
end


Then I realised it was my own fault as I had actually caused it myself when
I'd done this some time back...

-- Adjust the geometry settings so windows do not cover the tray
if not (c.name == david or c.name == Guake!) then
local geometry = c:geometry()
if geometry.y  mywibox[c.screen]:geometry().y +
mywibox[c.screen]:geometry().height then
geometry.y = mywibox[c.screen]:geometry().y +
mywibox[c.screen]:geometry().height + c.border_width
c:geometry(geometry)
end
end


Doh! Added  or c.name == david2 and it gave me what I'd expected. Thanks
for the reply as it got me back on track!


PS: Must investigate if fullscreen is a better choice or if the geometry
idea was a good one - comments welcome!


Thanks again!

Hey David,

Have you tried mod4 + f? It's the default keybinding for fullscreen. You can
also setup a rule for that.

Not posting to the list because i'm on my phone, and it doesn't support
mailing lists.

Cheers

 Hi All,
 
  
 
 I've been using an Windows XP Virtual Machine for quite a while now. I run
it headless and access it through RDP using remmina, running in Awesome -
All great - Especially that when I put remmina into full screen mode as it
uses the entire display, completely covering the tray. Then I just use Mod
4 # to change to another Awesome pane/desktop/? and so on.
 
  
 
 Now for the strange/interesting part. I just setup a Windows 7 VM in 
 Virtualbox but this time, running headless and using remmina to RDP 
 in, fullscreen mode does NOT cover the entire screen, but leaves the 
 tray (only uses the viewport?)
 
  
 
 Anyone know where I should start to look to adjust the Windows 7 VM to use
the full screen rather than just the viewport? Virtualbox, virtualbox client
extensions, remmina, awesome, X, other???
 
  
 
  
 
 Thanks in advance
 
  
 
  
 
 Dave

You can toggle the fullscreen status with the default keybinding 
Mod4+f. That should do the trick. You could even set up a rule so that 
you don't have to do this manually everytime.

remmina in awesone - Different behaviour for RDP of Windows XP and Windows 7

2013-02-11 Thread David Sorkovsky
Hi All,

 

I’ve been using an Windows XP Virtual Machine for quite a while now. I run it 
headless and access it through RDP using remmina, running in Awesome – All 
great – Especially that when I put remmina into “full screen mode” as it uses 
the entire display, completely covering the tray. Then I just use Mod 4 # to 
change to another Awesome pane/desktop/? and so on.

 

Now for the strange/interesting part… I just setup a Windows 7 VM in Virtualbox 
but this time, running headless and using remmina to RDP in, fullscreen mode 
does NOT cover the entire screen, but leaves the tray (only uses the viewport?)

 

Anyone know where I should start to look to adjust the Windows 7 VM to use the 
full screen rather than just the viewport? Virtualbox, virtualbox client 
extensions, remmina, awesome, X, other???

 

 

Thanks in advance
