Yes, the same happens on the Aspire One. You must click on "Panel options" - "Panel preferences" and in "More options", "Visibility", switch the setting "always visible" to "Windows can cover". -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Dear Listmates,

After a traumatic experience of installing suse 11.1 on hp2133 mini-laptop (chrome graphics driver (www.openchrome.org) had to be installed from source, broadcomm STA driver had to be used: (http://en.opensuse.org/HCL/Network_Adapters_(Wireless)/Broadcom_BCM43xx) ), I am still suffering from the following weird problem:

Some of the programs in KDE, for example KpowerSave and Amarok (or even the panel configuration) have configuration windows that are so big that they don't fit on my screen! .. It is very annoying, as the "OK" button to save changes is beyond reach. The screen is the mini-laptop screen ("wxsvga" or how it is called..?).

Does anyone have a clue how to fix this??

Cheers,

Interesting... Does your whole desktop fit on the screen?

Run: xwininfo

and click the cursor on the background to find out what the X-Display manager thinks your resolution is. If it exceeds the hardware resolution then tht is the issue to address first.

Boris.

The resolution is 1024x600, which is OK. I put the panel into the right and as a column, but the panel itself does not seem to be the issue! The windows simply go out of the bounds of the screen and the "OK" button is hidden somewhere below. :/ Happend only with the configuration windows which have a fixed height. Btw Alfredo, what is the resolution of the screen of your mini laptop?
