UT Physics Linux FAQ

Secondly, we mount the device in "synchronous" mode, which makes writes seem slower than the more common "asynchronous" mode.

And one thing I don't think most people realize... the sensor bar is just two IR emitters used for positioning. The Wiimote doesn't have to be calibrated because it doesn't use actual positioning on the screen. If you look straight down the barrel, per say, you'll notice that the cursor isn't exact... but close enough that it's still easy to navigate.
