please advise how do I disable the password protected screen saver?
I know the password is EKOS but I don't like the interference.
Security is not an issue for me.

thanks,
Malcolm

I'm trying to use the Oracle Virtual Box.
It runs on my laptop ok, but it wont run where I want it to run...which is on my computer in my observatory.
I followed all the same steps to install which were successful on my laptop, but I get this error on my desktop in the observatory:
VT-x/AMD-V hardware acceleration is not available on your system. Your 64-bit guest will fail to detect a 64-bit CPU and will not be able to boot.
any suggestions?

thanks,
Malcolm

this looks fantastic, and I cant wait to try it myself.
Of course, an image file would be a dream too.
But just to let you know, there is definitely interest in this concept,

hi, I was able to run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade tonight, so I assume I have the latest software.
Attached is the log file from my attempt to connect the CEM25
Any ideas or suggestions?

thanks very much,
