I don't understand why the display is still powered even when there has been no server connection for X amount of time. Having a number of these radiator devices in the home will also keep the house warmer and require more air conditioning in the summer. Not good. -- MelonMonkey Bruno

Did you roll back the server software at any point? The firmware is included with the server and updating using an older server installation will roll it back. My firmware is version 76 - that's from one of the 6.5.x nightlies from a few months back. -- MelonMonkey Bruno *'Twisted Melon
