The MIMO is connected to a USB port on one of the DELL 20" monitors (I assume this is a powered USB port).I do remember someone (a colleague I guess) saying that he could even power an iPad from one of those Dell ports (that iPad really needs a lot of power, exceeding the formal USB 2.0 specs, most Apple laptops have 1 port with extra power, AFAIK), so I guess it's a power issue, combined with that BIOS update, that fixes this.-nudone (December 10, 2011, 09:04 AM)
I first thought that 30 to 40 buttons would the right amount (or even more) but I now think it's way too many. Keeping layouts to around 20 buttons or less will, hopefully, be easier to remember.You can run several instances of WinButtons (by giving it a -f filename command-line parameter for a specific file, and -t xxx -l yyy for a specific desktop position) that are positioned side by side so you have quicker response when switching apps in a context-sensitive config (less buttons to redraw), and because of less screen updates, there's less distraction for the user.-nudone (December 10, 2011, 09:04 AM)
Nevertheless, we'll need continuous integration for both platformsJenkins should be able to handle that for you, we're running it here both on Linux and Windows (mostly for Java and .NET stuff though, but it should handle standard make stuff with ease), and it's quite easy to run, once you've installed a bunch of plug-ins.-phitsc (December 09, 2011, 08:02 AM)

I can reboot fine, it just doesn't make any difference to the MIMO. I can never really predict what will be required to make the screen work.Ah, it might be my sloppy reading, but I didn't get that detail, sorry. But the net result is bad enough.-nudone (December 08, 2011, 05:17 PM)
But, honestly, I'd be happier if the pc would just stop bluescreening.-nudone (December 08, 2011, 05:17 PM)
, a reboot, and a re-recognition of the MIMO hardware, it works just fine. By the next reboot I'll know if still flashes so often during system startup.

I've an iPad and that seems about the best touchscreen at the moment. Maybe they should all be named something other than "touch", perhaps "heavythumbprodscreens".That's in fact the difference between a Capacitive touch screen (that the iPad and most of the smartphones have) and a Resistive touch screen that the MIMO has, the technology diff explained in this Wikipedia article-nudone (December 07, 2011, 12:04 PM)
Anyone know of a workaround so I can buy the apps I want?-Deozaan (December 06, 2011, 06:24 PM)

) but it can be done.
It's too late to send back to Amazon, I've checked. I suppose I could send it back and say it's not fit for purpose or something but I suspect that it will work fine if I plug it into a system with less monitors attached. So, not fit for purpose isn't really the truth.-nudone (December 05, 2011, 06:23 AM)
I'm not prepared to keep messing about with it anymore.-nudone (December 05, 2011, 06:23 AM)
, as originally a touchscreen seemed such a good idea

now I see why you needed this app
