  as someone who has never bothered to play with any of the UIs and is
thus asking from a position of total ignorance, i have a couple
questions about the "User interfaces" section of that cheat sheet.

  using stock oe-core, i followed your cheat sheet and tried this:

$ bitbake

and got:

ERROR: Timeout while attempting to communicate with bitbake server

so i need to start the server?  should that be mentioned there?

  i then tried:

$ bitbake -u knotty2
FATAL: Invalid user interface 'knotty2' specified.
Valid interfaces: depexp, goggle, ncurses, hob, knotty [default].
$

  just pointing out that if i follow that cheat sheet to the letter, i
run into problems.
