Re: Re: stowaway

Simon,

It worked for me.. but it's been such a horribly long time, I've no idea
what I did... I do remeber that stowd is depreciated and I used the cat
< /dev/stowaway to make it work... The 'cat' won't actually say/do
anything.. It just holds the device open which makes the keyboard work.

I can't remember the details, but it does work. You'll crack it sooner
or later
