Hi,

Did anyone here test Claws Mail on a netbook like the Acer Aspire One
or the Asus eeePC? If so, how does it work generally?

Thanks,

Running nicely on my eeePC 901.
Distro: Ubuntu 8.04 with kernel from array.org

Only hickup was solved by the lastest build of libetpan.

Works well on Acer AspireOne with ArchLinux/Xfce. Maybe a fullscreen
view like F11 in Firefox would be nice.

I vote for that option. Should be trivial since gtk+ has a build-in
feature supporting that:-)

Works fine here on an Eee PC900 running Gentoo. A fullscreen option
would be nice, although I use KDE so I can run it fullscreen already
(and the extra space makes a difference n a 1024x600 screen).

Thank you. Can you add a menu item for this,so that the hotkey can be
changed? Maybe under View/Layout.

Not wishing to appear greedy, but... can you add a way to start claws in
fullscreen. Either a command line option or a (hidden) preference setting.

That works, thanks. But I've found a problem with the fullscreen display.
When I try to send a GPG signed message, the pinentry requester opens
behind the claws window. So I can't type in my passphrase, can't cancel
the requester and can't un-fullscreen claws. The only way put was to
switch to a VC and "killall -9 pinentry".

I don't know what makes you tick but I wish it was a time bomb.

Can you test with our internal passphrase handler?

Do you meand isable gpg-agent? I've tried that but it still
tries to use pinentry with the same result.

I've tested both; it works fine for me using xfwm4 and pinentry-gtk-2.
By the way, as soon as I open a windows (Compose, etc) from the
fullscreen mainwindow, the WM makes my panels reappear.

What's your WM? I'd suggest it's a bug of the WM not to display a
pointer-grabbing window on top of everything else.

I'm using KDE 3.5.10 and pinentry-qt, it works with KDE's fullscreen
option but not with CM's GTK version.
