Touchscreen near the space door.

Status: being build/designed - not operational

Network

Hard wired to port B4; last IP from DHCP: 192.168.4.214/24 with hardware ethernet 00:03:2d:08:07:6e on the wired connection.

Install

  1. Make sure you set the date & time in the BIOS correctly - as otherwise the HTTPS connections during the install will fail.
  2. The BIOS seems to sometimes loose its mind (battery issue most likely).
  3. To get the Touch panel working
    1. Install a full version of ubuntu. (Will take forever).
    2. Disable the second screen
    3. Use the [xinput_calibrator] calibration command.
    4. Extract the config and save this file to /usr/share/X11/x.conf.d -- also save a copy elsewhere for the step below.
    5. Install [Porteus Kios] and enable SSH and VNC. This will wipe the disk (hence the elsewhere in above step).
    6. Set the url to https://makerspaceleiden.nl/crm/kiosk
    7. Use SSH to copy the config file you saved elsewhere into /etc/X11/x.conf.d and `killall -1 X' or reboot.
