Hi Chad

I am only a recent Altair owner, but I can't get any of the sourceforge 5.x 
series to work properly with menu buttons. I always end up with buttons for the 
main buttons (nav, etc) working, and the other set not. So I can't get into 
settings to check anything. I have tried Portrait vs Landscape versions, and 
changing the settings, no luck.

However, the Triadis 5.x series downloads and works fine for me, and I can go 
back from 6.2.x back to 5.2.x from Triadis no worries.

Triadis has also been working on a firmware which allows you to run XCSoar.exe 
from the root of a USB key. This is how I now run XCSoar 6.2.x - thus I leave 
the default 5.x version installed for backwards compatibility, and to access 
things like the Vega settings (e.g .to update the accelerometer which is not 
currently supported in 6.x) - but just plug in a USB key to run newer versions. 
It also means I can swap USB keys to try others.

Good luck.

Scott
