I found that this leads to quite a usable system:
- apt-get install matchbox [to get all components]
- put the following into .xsession:
matchbox-panel &
matchbox-desktop &
openmoko-panel-plugin &
zhone &
exec matchbox-window-manager -theme blondie -use_titlebar yes \
-use_cursor no -use_desktop_mode decorated
Matchbox-panel works well as an application launcher.
-use_desktop_mode decorated makes it to be threated as a normat window,
e.g. you may switch from it to other one by taping on it's title.
To enlarge font in window title,
edit /usr/share/themes/blondie/matchbox/theme.xml and enlarge both <font
id="titlefont" ...> and <frame id="main" ...>
To get a nice terminal emulator, apt-get install lxterminal
Still could not enlarge matchbox-keyboard font - looks like it is not
possible without altering the code.
Also, *sometimes* it is not possible to switch from desktop to other opened
window by tapping on title - but it may be workarounded by starting
anything (e.g. lxterminal) and switching from there.
