Peter,

Thank You!!

I was really stuck not being able to connect, but your instructions on
using the adb shell to supply it with the config.xml info  worked!

I have not yet determined for sure which "android-XXXXXXXXXXXX" my phone
is, but I was able to change some settings and enable remote control.
(although mythmote's connection is broken as soon as I hit a button) but
since I can use the interface I am not too concerned with that.

I will work on checking the gesture / touchscreen map settings.

But thanks for getting me over that stumbling block!!


George
