Re: window does not fit on screen
Thanks. This is a queer window, when I try to grab and move it, its parent window gets moved instead. But thanks!

window does not fit on screen

Re: window does not fit on screen
Thanks. I can not increase the physical resolution but do you know how to increase the virtual resolution? I would like to do so on a per-user basis. Setting the line Virtual x y in Xorg.conf has the desired effect but it also increases the size for the login manager, which is undesired. Also the virtual resolution change does not integrate very well with Gnome Shell. Googling suggests I should use the xrandr extension but I do not understand it very well. Thanks.

Re: window does not fit on screen
The command that works for me is: xrandr --fb 1024x768 --output LVDS1 --panning 1024x768 gnome-shell --replace However there is a known bug [1] in xserver so I had to apply a patch and recompile. I would like to run this automatically at login, I tried .xinitrc and .bashrc but neither works. Anyway, my thanks.
