Hi, I am newbie to DSL,

I have sucessfully installed DSL embedded in windows xpsp2. However when i run it, the desktop resolution is poor, the text is uncomprehensible and icons are not recognised. Also the desktop is seen on the left column of the screen covering only 20 % of the screen. Is there any configuration file or any tweaks to be able to use it so that desktop is seen normal as we see in linux?

Thanks,

What do you mean by "text is uncomprehensible and icons are not recognised" - is that due to the resolution/window size being too small? Try running xsetup.sh

Otherwise, I believe some users fixed some xp+qemu problems by using the win98 compatibility mode (on qemu.exe).
