Chris, I posted this message in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-567 (Problem with POS modal window on Linux)
Could you please explain or provide a patch for your solution with the double keyboard issue ? Thanks Jacques De : "clearchris" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > The "UseWindow=false" setting seems to make the POS work as I would expect > the POS to work (i.e. no title bar and it runs un-windowed). The only > difference is that there's the issue of being able to alt-tab to other > screens, but I think that's more an OS security issue and less a POS > application issue. > > It would probably be good to have links to documentation on how to harden an > X session or protect the passwords to the database, etc. Unfortunately, I > don't have much to offer on that issue as I haven't looked into it yet.
