Well this is weird. I got a new SD card to put this beta firmware on. Installation went smooth, but I noticed that the stylus didn't work. Where do you turn it on/off in this firmware?

Now comes the weird bit. I shut down the device, put the card with the old firmware back in - and lo and behold - the new firmware is on there as well! What?

Edit: Firmware is not on the card but loaded into the reader. So to revert you need to put the old system files back on the card and the machine will update to the older firmware.

You can switch the stylus on in the dr.ini file: use_stylus=true
