How do I define that driver at bootup, and what file do I edit, and how to I edit that file? Can I do that on my computer by inserting the SD card, or do I have to do it on the Freeplay somehow with a keyboard plugged in? I know I sound like a dweeb, I'm just really new to all this and I could use the explanation for a 5-year-old.  Confused

The instructions are very descriptive on what you need to do.

Can you connect a keyboard, and monitor to your CM3? This will help you a lot.

Double check (haven’t done it in a long while) but I believe that you have to press F4 to bring the command window, then you type the code given in the guide. (Under software setup) But you have to be connected to WiFi because it will download the file from github automatically. If the download and installation was successful, you need to remove the symbol # from one of the code lines (you open your micro sd card in your computer and search for a text file, specific text file as described in the guide), you will not remove all of them, but only one, the one that has your particular setup. And save it.

Bare minimum, you need a USB hub, keyboard and WiFi dongle. Monitor will only help you make the screen bigger, but helps a lot. CM3 does not include a WiFi or bluetooth modules, so only wired keyboard and WiFi through a USB dongle.

Let us know how it goes and if you need more help. I tried to put in as plain as possible, as requested. Tongue
