<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Hello,<br><br></div>with sugar-emulator we used to run by default in a window. These days sugar-runner defaults to full screen but it's still possible to make it use a window by setting the resolution preference.<br>
<br></div>I would like to understand how badly it would affect people if we only allowed to run in fullscreen. Are you using the resolution preference? Would it be a major problem if it went away?<br><br></div>The issue is that at the moment there is no good solution for nesting X inside X. Xephyr is buggy and pretty much unmaintained, and it's now crashing at startup on unstable Ubuntu. Xvnc might be an alternative but last time I tried it was also crashy, it would be a bit complicated to setup and it won't allow us to test hardware acceleration if we need that in the future.<br>
<br>Always running a full X session would probably simplify and make sugar-runner more solid. There are challenges with that approach too with systemd, but I believe those might be solvable.<br clear="all"><div><div><div>
<div><br></div><div>I'm probably not going to do anything about this until it becomes a problem for sugar-build officially supported distros, but I'm thinking about the issue and I'm interested in people feedback.<br>
