Customization option. For customers who want to do Digital signage or just show off some pictures somewhere.

If you're concerned about the scroll bar, alter the overflow CSS element. Here is an example of a Web application providing a digital sign.

Implementation

We have forked rkiosk and created our own extension, (iceweasel-)webconverger. We had to do this as I had to modify some of upstream's packaging and functions. Upstream was also a little un-cooperative.

Test the extension on your Firefox browser

http://webconverger.com/xpis

This will lock down the browser and you'll need to use the firefox --safe-mode to remove it.

The best way of installing and removing this extension is with:

deb http://debian.webconverger.com/ lenny/
deb-src http://debian.webconverger.com/ lenny/

in your /etc/apt/sources.list and the apt-get install iceweasel-webconverger on a Debian machine.

Slideware

"iceweasel-fullerscreen" is the name of the package of Daniel Glazman's FullerScreen extension. It is good particularly for slideshows, though not digital signage as 'FullerScreen' does not allow Flash movies to go fullscreen.
