When I try to run applications (VMD/OpenSceneGraph) through Chromium, I have a few issues I can't work through:
1. Chromium splits the mouse control of the application into a separate window, with the actual display window being shown full screen separately.
2. Even though I am using the 'fullscreen' option from the render spu and even though the actual display window is full screen, the actual images only show up on a quarter of the screen.
3. Chromium can't interpose on scripts as easily as binaries, you need to mess around with the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable within the application script (this one is not so much of a problem, as we have found a workaround more or less for this).
I have included my .conf file below.
Many thanks,
Paul.
