Last night tamale (the door RasPi) died. It was some low level hardware
error - when you plug it in even the lights don't even go on. :(
Jordan has graciously donated her RasPi as a swap-out replacement, and
it's working and I can SSH into it - but it doesn't open the door. One
problem is that when I plug in the door USB device, nothing shows up in
dmesg. I don't know what the problem is, maybe someone more adept at
hardware hacking can take a look at it.
The HDMI adapter will definitely come in handy if something like this
happens in the future.

I have a DVI-HDMI adapter and an hdmi cable that
i'm bringing in, in 2 hours. Also going to grab another hdmi-dvi cable from home
since a couple people might bring RPis tonight. We could use one more hdmi cable (i have
a second adapter dongle but not a second hdmi cable) tonight if anyone who is coming has
one lying around. Jordan, will you be there this afternoon? Would like to help get the
terminal set up.
