Sweet, I'm glad to hear that!


i had a few issues with the resolution of the VM, whenever i tried to change it the refresh rate switched to something nonsensical. though that might have something to do with me trying on a vista sp0 machine (long story...).
LOL, I have some of those stories.... Not sure why the VM resolution would have issues switching -- but if you want a smaller res; the easiest method would be to edit the /etc/xorg/xconfig.xorg (I think that is the name of the file) and remove the 1280x1024 and just leave 1024x768 (or whatever) in as your resolution. It should then use that as the resolution.


regardless, since cygwin/x will happily accomodate xephyr and qtcreator, i can now mess around with qt-applications for fremantle seamlessly from my windows desktop.
WOW! I have to say, you have just made me sit back and totally rethink my direction . See: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=31892

Also, QT/Creator is available as a Native Windows app; so you don't have to run it as a Cygwin/x application. Unless you want to.

Nathan.
