I had seen that post before, but the warning about it being "hard"
stopped me.  I just read more and it's not SO bad... hmmm...  I think
I'll give this a try soon.

...and you've solved another mystery for me!  I played with jivelite on
one of my Pis that has a display, but when I rebooted it, jivelite
re-ran setup.  If I could just get it to save the config (probably with
a pCP backup like you said), this whole thing might get a lot easier.

I'll mess around with these options and see what I can do.

However... I've been thinking about maybe using a touch screen on the
two Pis I want to remote control.  Touch screen should be kinda nice
actually.  Are there any relatively baked hardware devices that are not
a bare screen?  Meaning no exposed electronics and hopefully some kind
of stand so the touchscreen would be usable sitting on a flat surface
(like a table).  If a device like that isn't too expensive that might be
a better alternative for me.

Thanks for all your suggestions.  :)

Brian.
