[Scottish] Last Months Talk
Hey all, I just thought it would be good to pass on this link that Patrick sent me after last months talk was over: That proposed legislation from New Zealand can be found here, if you’re interested: http://www.internetrightsbill.org.nz/ Cheers, Kenny. ___ Scottish mailing list Scottish@mailman.lug.org.uk https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/scottish
[Scottish] Window manager for tablet?
Hi, I'm looking for suggestions for WM which will be usable on a tablet (i.e. small screen) VNCing onto a Linux box. Really I want to run all my apps full screen without the expense of a menu bar. Although most tiling WMs allow this, it's rather difficult to do alt+tab with no keyboard! Hence I'd want something with a conventional task bar and a launcher would be nice too (not least so I can write an app to switch the 'mouse' buttons). Thus far the only taskbars/launchers I've seen for tiling WMs are very minimal (and very small to poke with my fat digits). I usually use KDE: my ideal solution would be to get rid of the window decorations / force stuff to run full screen. Anyone got any suggestions? TIA C. ___ Scottish mailing list Scottish@mailman.lug.org.uk https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/scottish

Also Openbox-KDE gives access to the KDE environment with a minimal window manager (no plasma). Don't you want to run these (choose as the desktop from e.g. kdm) on the host desktop rather than the tablet?

I picked up a really cheap Bluetooth keyboard from Sainsbury's and apart from missing a character or two it works a treat.
