What does "disable VGA jumper" do instead?

The errata says

> p.37: "ON-BOARD VGA DISABLE JUMPER" - but there is no VGA on the Blackbird

but it is unclear what the jumper does instead (it seems to exist on the board).

My guess: Is this the "Disable AST VGA with jumper" instead?

I think so, but I'm not 100% sure. FWIW Raptor is aware that this page exists and told me that they would look into the issues and apply appropriate changes to the next revision of the manuals. Mx08 (talk) 19:42, 9 February 2020 (CST)

Existence of USB 2.0 header is unclear

The errata says

> Internal USB2.0 Type-A port is not mentioned in the manual

It leaves open: Is there a USB 2.0 header for Talos II and Blackbird on the motherboard? Where is it?

There exists an internal USB2.0 Type-A port on both the Talos II and the Blackbird. Note it's not an internal header but a "Type-A port" which are common for e.g. USB sticks etc. Just look at the board, it's easy to find :) Mx08 (talk) 19:38, 9 February 2020 (CST)
