I'd like to turn an old laptop into a "squeezbox" appliance, just switch
it on and it boots to a "jivelite" interface. I'd like to have keyboard
or mouse control and hopefully IR remote control via FLIRC or perhaps
one of those MCE handsets with USB dongles mentioned elsewhere.  

Am I right in thinking the only skin that currently has full button bar
in "now playing" is the joggler skin?  This laptop's 15inch screen has
1024x768 resolution.  Could the joggler skin be hacked to run at
1024x768 resolution?  I'm not a coder, so really haven't a clue if or
how it would be done.  I looked at files in the jivelite git repo, and
am i right in thinking all  the magic happens in the 
JogglerSkinApplet.lua code as far as sizing is concerned? 

Critical constants/functions appear to be suff like  THUMB_SIZE =
40,THUMB_SIZE_MENU = 40, Framework:setVideoMode(800, 480, 0, false) all
a whole load of other numbers in those 3000+ lines of code.  It seems
intensive work to get it right. Is it just a case of getting all those
numbers right and then compiling jivelite? Or is it more complex than
that?
