This will update the repo, install all relevant dependencies and update the card. It is possible that a reboot is required after running the update script. Please do not stop the update once started.
For the update the password of the current user is required to gain root privileges.
For the demo to run you will additionally require the stimuli files. These are not distributed through git as the size is to large.
The usb stick will contain the stimuli files.

This can only be done once all previous steps have been completed and the PC has been rebooted.

call it initially by starting the desktop drawer (the drawer is launched with the meta key aka Windows Key). This is done with the meta (Windows) key.

If a network message pops up regularly notifying that no connection could be established, then this can be mitigated by disabling the ipv4 connection and setting the ipv6 connection to local only.
Open the settings from the system drop down
Then select the network settings tab
Select the USB network adapter called "enx..." The image is missleading as it was taken on a VM with no such (USB) device.
Disable IPv4 in the IPv4 Tab
Set IPv6 in the IPv6 Tab to Link-Local only
This step does not have to be done normally it is done with the ansible script. But it is kept here for documentation purposes.
