DeeJanuzandClaude Opus 5.5 0821b1013e Settings: HANDS_SWAP_SIDES defaults to auto, and old untouched configs move to it
frametop.conf.example said HANDS_SWAP_SIDES=0, and desktops.sh copies it on a
fresh install, so every new install forced ft-camd's side camera names and
turned the hand tracker's own side check off. Some SteamVR restarts swap those
names, and then hands land beside their cutouts and recordings are mislabelled.

The example now says auto. scripts/conf-migrate.sh, run by install.sh and
hands/rec/install.sh, replaces the old line only where it's still exactly as
the example wrote it.

# Install everything on the Steam Frame: the build container, Frametop (multi-screen
# desktop, input relay, universal 3D mouse, settings app), and optionally gaze mode, our own
# eye tracker for it, and the Bluetooth fixes. Run it on the headset in a terminal, from this repo. It's safe to re-run,
# for example after `git pull`. (Hand tracking, hands/, is deferred: it isn't offered here.)
# (It also works from a PC over SSH; see "Developing from a PC" in the README.)
#
# Usage: ./install.sh [--yes] [--no-bluetooth]
# --yes don't ask; installs gaze mode, and our eye tracker if sudo can run without
# a password prompt; skips the Bluetooth fixes and the SteamVR restart
# --no-bluetooth don't offer the Bluetooth fixes

SteamVR has to restart once, to load the 3D mouse driver and to start the input relay
before it. Restarting SteamVR closes everything open in VR, including this terminal if
it's in a VR desktop. Rebooting the headset works too.
Recommended: in Frametop Display Settings > Power, choose when the displays turn off
while the headset isn't used (for a stand or mount that covers its proximity sensor), and
turn on Stay awake while plugged in, so Steam doesn't put the headset to sleep while it
charges. The displays still turn off when you take the headset off.
