meego-netbook-ia32-1.1.90.3.20110215.10.img's installer prompts the
user to set a default user and password on first-boot, and sets the
root password to the same as the user's. Intel's
meego-tablet-ia32-pinetrail.iso
(http://appdeveloper.intel.com/en-us/meego-swype-esla ) doesn't.

Therefore be sure to consider the following warning before putting the
tablet on a public wifi network:
It boots up by default with an SSH port open, with  accounts "root"
and "meego" set to the default password "meego."

> Not shown: 999 closed ports
> PORT   STATE SERVICE VERSION
> 22/tcp open  ssh     OpenSSH 5.6 (protocol 2.0)

Therefore, bring up a terminal and su to root and do "passwd root" and
"passwd meego" to setup better passwords. Ideally you should also
modify SSH to not allow root logins, and even better setup SSH
public/private keypairs for login, and change sshd_config(5) with:
> PermitRootLogin no
> PasswordAuthentication no
> PermitEmptyPasswords no

.....

On a non-security related question: I finally figured out how the
tablet UX is supposed to be used by watching a video -- there's an
"exit" key ("quickselect button" per
http://pycage.blogspot.com/2010/10/wetab-look-at-first-meego-tablet.html
)  that takes you back to the main panel UI. Unfortunately, when the
S10-3t is in tablet configuration, the equivalent "windows key" that
brings you back to the panels is hidden under the display, and none of
the buttons on the lower left are active. You can work around it by
reaching under the display and finding the window or menu keys on the
keyboard, but it's tedious to use that way...

What is the correct way to bind these keys? xmodmap(1)?? I ran xev(1)
and when I press these keys, it reports the following:
"keys: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
            0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0"

Anybody have the key binding names for the "screen rotate" and
"natural touch" buttons near the display? Or better yet a .xmodmap
file? Or the right way to do this?
