(New / Fixed) Widescreen Package Update
-
Here is a widescreen package that works on 2.0.3, it's a modification of the original package for 1.2.3 with updated menu (modify file fbegin.inc to match 2.0.3) and changes on all.css (depending on your screen size it's possible that I messed up the footer, but at least on full HD screen it looks good with up to 5 columns)
Fixed :
- Graph where on to of the menu bar
- Increase usable space from 80% to 90%
- Menu is in line with 2.0.3
- Fixed footer (somewhat)
The attachement is a zip file, bt I had to put the .jpg extension as I'm not allowed to attach zip file.

Thanks for your efforts! :D

Tested and working beautifully on 2.0.3!
Can we make something that installs this package automagically? :)

I've created a simple method to install this widescreen package on pfSense 2.0.3 (x86 or amd64), all info on the following link:

Should I assume it's working well for you ?Initially it was trying to pack 4 columns into the old space… refreshes didn't work but a reboot did. Looks great and the alternative repository made installation very smooth.
Thank you!I'd offered to pay a bounty and that still stands. Is this one totally your's or an extension of Rich's work? How/who does the bounty go to? Or should I just send it to Jim and Chris?

This is my work based on the previous widescreen 0.2 that was built for 1.2.3, and somewhat working on 2.0 (some menu entry where missing, display bug). I didn't use the work of Rich as his package works only on he 2.1 distrib. and there is too much changes on the GUI from 2.0 to 2.1.
Bounty $ will be greatly appreciated to keep the repository server up for the next years to come.

I want to be in that pool as well! Let me know of bank coordinates or if you prefer Western Union and how you want it.

Got it… and sent. Thank you again for your efforts not only on the package but the deployment scheme as well.
I'm seeing one small anomaly where the screen graphics don't align in the bottom right corner. But I've got what I need so I don't care if it can or will be fixed, just wanted to let you know.
Thanks,

Thank you, and regarding the footer display issue in the right corner, this is listed in the package description: - Fixed footer (somewhat).
I've seen the issue, but already spent 2 hours trying to fix it, without success, so I gave up as it is not really a show stopper.Fred

Where do you see that?
