What SD cards should I use?
The Rpi Foundation recommend Class 4 and above (10 is the highest)
If no class number it will probably not work.
Barry recommends Class 6 as a minimum.
Barry is trying to minimise SD read/writes in Puppi SAP.
Even the same brand of Class 4 can be temperamental.
Transcend brand SD cards have been recommended.

If you are getting strange auto-repeats or other weird behaviour try plugging the USB keyboard or other device directly into the Rpi, or use a powered hub.
