Hi I am trying to implement a simple Kiosk-like web application. The application will run fullscreen all the time and show web pages. I my case it will be project's build status. I want to use a simple computer like a RaspberryPi. And I want to avoid starting heavy environments like KDE or Gnome. Is there any good example/tutorial on this topic? In fact I already have a simple GTK application that uses WebKit engine. I can run it both in Gnome and without it by using xinit. I have a few questions about it: - gtk_window_fullscreen() works fine with Gnome but with xinit it does not expand the window. Does it mean that fullscreen is actually a DE feature? What is the best way to make fullscreen app in XWindow? Right now I use gdk_screen_get_width/height and then set default size. - If I run webkit in XWindows it shows pages with horrible fonts. How to make the browser fonts similar to what I see in my Gnome desktop? Where to start reading about font handling in the modern Linux graphical stack? - It looks like Kodi player at RaspberryPi does not not use xinit at all. It looks like RaspberryPi has a direct framebuffer feature. Is it possible to do it with my webkit-centric application? I can't find any details on this topic. Did anybody make something similar? I would love to hear the experience in making DE-less applications. _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
