1) Both the USB2VGA and USB2VGA*2* are now discontinued, to drive projectors (or Smart Boards etc) from an XO laptop:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Adding_USB_SVGA Do others recommend holding out with StarTech (buying used for about $15 is certainly an option) or rather, looking to another better-loved-brand in 2016? 2) Does anyone have experience hooking up Linux to classroom Smart Boards? Is expanding the mouse/pointer size (and requesting an intentionally laggy-mouse-trail in Gnome) sufficient so all kids can vividly follow the projection screen? Or is it not worth the battle -- for example if similar Windows/Mac drivers/software are so important for classroom-wide usability, and perhaps do not exist for Linux?
