WARNING
-It has been reported on RootzWiki by “colonel panic” that updating WebOS to 3.0.4 breaks mboot. See his thread for more info.
This can reportedly be fixed by running the ACME installer again and installing mboot only. I have not tried this.

Reason: Updated
Take a screenshot -Hold the power button When the menu comes up press screenshot!
Adjust brightness with status bar -Menu > Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Interface > Status bar tweaks > Status bar brightness control -Slide your finger across the status bar to adjust brightness!
As my first post around here I'd like to thank uh60james for that
I am a refugee from another Touchpad forum and have not installed CM Alpha 1 but am eagerly awaiting Alpha 2 when it hits. Looking forward to this forum getting livelier as the masses gravitate this way.

And so is 2.1, this will push me over the edge when I'm sober enough to comprehend the instructions.
Glad I could be of some help. You will find a lot of helpful people here and quickly learn the in's and out's of Android. Don't be worried too much about installing CM7, its actually easier than the instructions posted around the web make it sound!

Hey, I'm a software engineer with more years experience than I care to mention, what can possibily go wrong?
Currently enjoying the Alpha 2.1 on my TouchPad. Tonight I installed Google Earth works great quite responsive, can maneuver using 2 fingers to rotate map. I doubt I'll use WebOS again.

I did the Webos update.... It did indeed wipe the moboot. and recreating the install steps but only placing the moboot zip in the "cminstall" folder did the trick.
I still like to dabble in webOS even tho I'm dual booting with CM7 as it seems some streaming vidoes seem to work much better in webOS
When in CM7 if I hold power then choose reboot > reboot to webOs it only works when charging? While hooked up to computer with USB cable it works. No cable hooked up it kinda works > have to hold power button down untill logo pops up. Is this normal for everybody?
So far. Cm7 a2.1 seems to be very responsive but the battery life is significantly less than webos. I still use webos as I have started working with the enyo programming framework. Seems a shame to let a good os die.
I have been working with cm7 for quite some time on the nook color and the move to the touchpad was great from the 7 inch to the 10 inch format. Quadrant scores are a bit below what I would expect from the better hardware but I'm sure it will improve with updates to cm7.
As I am new to android, I might be missing something.
I went into the market to download an app. I tapped on the screenshots to take a look. I was able to swipe through the pictures but I could not exit. The back button was not there and pressing the home button on the TP would take me back to the homescreen.
I tried killing the market app to start from scratch, but that did not solve it. Each time I load the market app, I get the screenshots again.

Help please.
There should be a back button at the bottom of the screen, third from the left, looks like a back arrow <---
I have to say when I started using CM7 it foxed me for a bit too, it becomes intuitive after a while though
