Hi,

I'm using the following command to launch chrome in kiosk mode.

google-chrome --kiosk "http://youtube.com/"

Problem is chrome seems to not utilize the space beyond width of 1024px.(beyond 1024 is just black)

I am doing this on linux without a desktop but have Xvfb running to emulate Xwindow.

Things I have tried....

- It doesn't matter what url I load. Max width used is 1024px. The rest is black.
- I tried with firefox and it works because I can specify the width and height from the command line.
- Tried 1024x2000 resolution and it works. Large height values seems to be ok.


Thanks
John

I figured out how to set width height through command arguments
