nanogui: Thread: nano-X and X

I am trying to throw together a picture frame for my folks so they can 
have pics of the grandkids.

I got an old laptop (Gateway Solo 2100).  With some effort, I have X up 
and running.  Apparently the video is pretty broken on these, so the 
only thing that works is vesa with X.  Framebuffer is hopeless; it 
corrupts the display pretty badly.  Neither svga or direct vga hardware 
drivers will compile.

So I need to get nano-X running under X.  No real problems except that I 
can't figure out how to get the nano-X window to open at 0,0.  Right now 
it is opening at what looks like 100,100.

I am using xinit -- nano-X to start it.  I've been through the nano-X 
code and I can't find where it specifies the coordinates of the nano-X 
root window under X....

Any help? Any suggestions?  (Why nano-X and not an X app?  Because 
nxview is almost what I need.  All I need to do is throw in a few lines 
to randomly pick a picture from a directory and I'm done.  No wm needed.)

Search for XCreateWindow in src/drivers/scr_x11.c

If it doesn't work, you're not hitting it with a big enough hammer
