  Hello,

Thanks for your reply. I'm a Fedora 13 user, and you don't get any 
Device manager there. I've reported this bug to the fedora
distribution bugzilla system. Will report back once I can control my 
devices again.

Regards
Anders

At this point you would normally select the device you want the server to start, but the list is empty. what you need to do is click on the client tab and add a client. Specify localhost and the same port you started the device with. you then click on the client and press connect and you will be presented with the familiar dialogue box.
