: it'd be helpful i think to have a generic troubleshooting guide.

: failure", get "buffer allocation failed".

That would be nice.  Got time to write one like that :-)

: then there are other "tricks" too, like checking what windows
: assigns to the device, switching to "polling" mode, etc.

That too...

I don't have time to do this.
