Configuring vadelma client

Default configuration

Vadelma is configured to contact the demo service at http://kados.kolibre.org with the default username and password.

Default language for the narrator voice is English.

Change settings

Settings can be modified via a settings file settings.ini located on the boot partition of sd-card. At startup, the client will look for the settings file and if found, use those settings. The settings file is provided as a release artifact along with the Vadelma image and can be downloaded here.
