Issue<\/strong>: Connecting a monitor or projector to the VGA is a PITA. The Nvidia Control panel detects it, but cannot enable it without re-writing a new Xorg.conf file, which is owned by root, and so the new file must be written to \/tmp and moved over, then X needs to be restart-ed. Even then, moving an open window into the 2nd screen won’t always work, even though the screen is there and I can move the mouse into the window.<\/p>\n
Issue<\/strong>: I installed Skype and it worked great w\/ the video camera, however the microphone does not work, even though Skype detected it and claims that it is there.<\/p>\n
Issues<\/strong>: Multiple issues
– trying to get multitouch to work – Fixed<\/b>, logged<\/a> and source<\/a>.
– trying to turn it off when a mouse is present
– getting middle mouse button when emulating 3 buttons (the mouse button is a rocker, so clicking both is impossible)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
