X and Fluxbox :: problems with screen rez



Are you using a resolution less than 1024x768? If so, some of the application do fill more than the screen (e.g. abs, at least in version 0.4.8) - I don't think there is much you can do about this, except using a higher resolution and/or asking John to fix it in the next release.
Hate to say this ......
......but try feather linux <featherlinux.berlios.de/>which is another small DSL/knoppix clone (very similar) but retains the knoppix xserver.
With the current xdrive that John is using I can't get a radeon 9700 to run, but feather can.
Normal knoppix cheat codes should then apply.

Isn't it a DSL clone ?

also changed the standard XFree86 server to the XVesa and XFbdev servers, which are quicker and much smaller.


Which exactlly the same as DSL.
Have a look at his site to see the differences also the user feedback forum about halfway down...DSL Clone?

DSL has switched to smaller Kdrive Xvesa and Xfbdev servers, while feather is still using knoppix standard.

Whatever works :)
Feather Linux uses Kdrive, doesn't it (well, it has a choice of Xvesa and Xfbdev in the X setup routine)? I assume that by "Knoppix standard" you mean the usual XFree86 servers.
Seems odd though - they're probably identical to the DSL servers, so it should be no different. Perhaps it's just because Feather Linux is based on Knoppix 3.3 or something.
