10 # mhall119 mentioned that from experimentation this package had been required
11 # so that unity8 does not get uninstalled by citrain
12 # Does not seems to be available on the arm archive, thus installing manually
13 wget https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/dmz-cursor-theme_0.4.4ubuntu1_all.deb
14 sudo dpkg -i dmz-cursor-theme_0.4.4ubuntu1_all.deb

18 citrain device-upgrade 022 0000

20 # On the DEVICE shell:
21 # This gave some errors about unity8-common being unconfigured
22 # Running the following seemed to fix it

Result:
- Bluetooth keyboard can be paired to the device
- Bluetooth pointing device can be paired to the device
- Device goes into desktop mode
- Pointing device works, but no cursor is shown (a static cursor appears on the top left corner, though)
- Keyboard works as expected
- Connecting the device to an HDMI monitor results in a "blank" screen with origami background, Ubuntu logo and a progress indicator, on both the device and the monitor
