Hi
I have successfully installed Slackware 9.1 on a ext2 partition and am running fluxbox. I have the following questions

1. I started X and the desktop seems to have gone beyond my monitor to the left. I configured Xconfig file to 640x480 and now the desktop is the right size.
However when I launch Emacs or [B]abiword[/b[ it goes out of my screen on the top and I cannot even scroll to the menus.
How can this be configured correctly

2. When does Ctrl-Alt-+ and Ctrl-Alt-- work

3. Which file system should I choose
ext2(currently used), ext3, jfs etc

4. If I want to reinstall Slackware or any other distro or change the filesystem how do I remove the current installed distro on ext2


Thanks and regards

Moving to the Software forum since Installation is meant for distro install issues.
