It sure did! I didn't even have to unplug the cable, I just had to
change node 0 to node 1 (which is where it shows up on my system), and
now it's working! I'll try firing this up out of /etc/rc.local, but I
don't often reboot the master backend anyway.
The only down side to this is now I have to get HD display working. I'm
close, just a tiny bit of hesitation in the playback. Lots of old
threads to go through on that one.
