  • OK, I was on my phone. Just checked on my desktop and agree the original could do with some margins. I stand behind the rest of what I said - the default colours for the “best” are awful - the black black and red red is really garish. If I didn’t notice the dark/light mode switch and contrast adjustment does it really matter if they were there or not? There is also way to much information on the “best” one - if I’m going to a web site cold, with no expectation at all of what you might find, I’m not going to sit there and read that much text - I need a gentle introduction, that may lead somewhere.





  • It seemed to be a hardware issue - the blue light on the controller was out until I removed and replaced it. It’s too much of a coincidence for me though that I just happened to have this hardware issue at the time when the software that uses that hardware was being updated.

    I use Vendor/Product ID to access it:

    # lsusb
    Bus 002 Device 005: ID 10c4:ea60 Silicon Labs CP210x UART Bridge
    Bus 002 Device 004: ID 051d:0002 American Power Conversion Uninterruptible Power Supply
    Bus 002 Device 006: ID 1a86:55d4 QinHeng Electronics 800 Z-Wave Stick
    ...
