Settings for this display cannot be | | !!! changed | -------------------------------------------- | The display you are using is networked. | | Please contact your system administrator | | for more information. | -------------------------------------------- (this dialog with Added HIGifiedness (C)) as you can see, it's not an unsupported message but one that should explain the situation a bit more for users who might try to run this app from networked X displays. Alternatively, this dialog box could say: -------------------- Warning! You are about to change display settings for the server. You are on a networked display. Settings for your current display cannot be changed remotely. If this is what you want, press Continue. [Cancel] [Continue] -------------------- Oh, and the gnome system tool which might change input settings (keyboard, mouse, xkb) in XF86 configs should present exactly the same warnings. Or, (this is perhaps a pipe dream), the GST could actually change the X server configuration from the appropriate display, provided it's an LTSP one and GST can find the right XF86config file. well, I'm dreaming. > > Cheers, > > Sergey -- Manuel Amador (Rudd-O) GPG key ID: 0xC1033CAD at keyserver.net
