Ok, I just got a used model off Ebay (pretty beat up lid, but brand new, and I mean BRAND NEW battery) and I'm liking it a lot (trackpad is a bit painful, but oh well), but here's my issue (probably lack of knowledge/understanding): How can I keep the machine in Developer Mode after a reboot? I got dev mode working, downloaded Crouton, installed it along with Ubuntu 16.04 LXDE, started to get it set up and decided to exit out of everything and completely power it off. When I powered it back on, I was presented with the 'Enable OS Verification' screen (which I assume I don't want) and hit CTRL-D for dev mode. This then reset the machine back to factory, and erased everything I'd done. No big

I am not a clever man. I'd been looking for a small 7" to 9" LCD screen for a while now for use with either my B+ or other computer (got an old Mac Mini) to fit inside an old junked Mac Classic case. Finally got a 7" monitor off of Amazon, but being a bit confused and a lot stupid, managed to get a model that has wire leads that are meant to connect up to a car's electrical system rather than a regular electical outlet. Now I've done some research and apparently it's possible to make or purchase a 12v power adapter that will then plug into a standard wall outlet or surge suppressor. Now before I go off buying more things that possibly won't be exactly what I want, what exactly do I need to p
