Hi Fred.... The monitor is now running at 1280x1024. I am using the openbox window manager. The display is way bigger that the LCD and when an application is minimized the icon goes way off the screen and I can't get it back. ...

You should check the log file (/var/log/Xorg.0.log). The actual resoulution is logged there. Regards, Hartwig
Hello,Screensaver or not is really ok with me but are there any more suggestions that might solve my display problem? I am reasonably sure the LCD is running at 1280x1024. Does anyone know specifically how openbox is told the display size to use? I could then ask on the sparc-debian mailing list how to find out if this is working correctly. (Debian 6.0 on Sun Ultra5/10 with Sun x7205a LCD)
I have three other questions about openbox: What is a "docking application" as discussed in the documentation?What is the difference between using openbox or openbox-session to start openbox? I don't think the documentation is very clear on this.
What is the difference between starting some applications through .Xsession before openbox is started vs. having openbox start them?
Best regards, Fred
