[En-Nut-Discussion] visualization problems of nutconf in Linux

[José Vallet]

Hello all.

Some time ago there was a thread about problems with nutconf in linux.

http://groups.google.com/group/osdeve_mirror_rtos_En-Nut-Discussion/browse_thread/thread/8ab8c664e4ff9b9e/572023d2e3635d35?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=nutconf+debian++linux#572023d2e3635d35

Is there any conclusion or advance about it?

I just installed a fresh Kubuntu 7.10, the packages used in 
http://www.ethernut.de/en/documents/debian.html and ethernut 4.4.0, and 
there are annoying visualization problems with the Nut/OS Components 
window (or is it called a panel?) that makes it impossible to select or 
configure almost anything.

I come from Kubuntu 6.04 and nutconf from 4.2.1 (if I remember 
correctly) and with those versions the nutconf was al least "usable" 
(with some tricks and workarounds) and there were no serious 
visualization problems. Now there are. BTW, resizing the whole window 
only helps just to reprint the problematic panel, but when one tries to 
"touch it" it blows again.

Anybody else experiencing these problems? Any solutions? Are the Linux 
users "forced" then to use nutconfigure? I miss the easiness and clarity 
of nutconf, I'd rather use a GUI than a command line, if possible.

Thanks and regards
José
