I'm having the exact same issue.  The browser is functional as I can use the keyboard shortcuts to load a webpage unfortunately, the alt key doesn't seem to work so I can't maximize the browser.

I also notice that its either the browser or the control panal but not both.  Is there a way to make the browser one of my widgets?  What I want to do is use my infocast to monitor my solar power generator and whole house electricity monitoring device.  Each has a seperate website to log into.  Ideally I'd like to be able to scroll between the weather widget, my current solar generation and my current house electricity use.

F11?

Ken, good to hear you are working on this.

I have a different problem with the Infocast 8" (Silvermoon) browser with the full screen browser binary posted on this site:
After using the browser to browse for a while, it will automatically reload and bring me back to the www.chumby.com home page with all bookmarks and history erased as if the browser was just booted from USB.  For example, I login to my gmail, read some messages, and in the process of replying, the screen just refresh/reload and I got the default chumby home page and there is no back button/history to go back to the webpage where I was replying.  I tried adding a few bookmarks just so I can use bookmarks to go back, but after the sudden refresh, I lost all bookmarks and history again and back to the chumby default home page.  Did anyone else get this issue?

BTW, I have no issue with the touch screen because I did not use a USB mouse, I have a USB flash drive on USB port 1 and I have a USB keyboard on USB port 2.  I use the touch screen as mouse.  I got the calibration screen when I first booted from USB.  The sudden browser reload/refresh does not take me back to the calibration screen, it only restarted the browser with all history and bookmark erased.

Thanks in advance.

Looks like something caused the browser to crash.  Since the execution of the browser is wrapped in a while loop, the browser will simply be restarted upon crashing.  The bookmarks not being correctly saved has been reported previously; likely a bug in the Qt demo browser code.

I'm not sure what caused your crash, but the web browser is using an older Qt library...  Some of these problems may go away if someone was to build a version of the browser that uses the newer Qt 4.7.1 libs by following the Web Browser build instructions and substituting the latest version of Qt.

I just bought it a day or so ago so it probably didnt get the update before they were disabled, this will get me going until an update though! Thanks again!

Hey Jeep...what home automation are you using? Vera by any chance? If so, are you just using the web interface or do you have a flash-lite widget?

I had the touchscreen issue w/ 1.0.1. Just got the 1.0.5 update and now it's fixed.
