[Tiptoi] My Tiptoi only seems to work with unmodified .gme files

[Till Korten]

Hi Wouter,

After deleting all but your own gme files with the same OID from the 
pen, you need to get the pen to read in the gme file. If it does this, 
you should hear a message "please wait a moment" the first time you turn 
on the pen after unplugging it from your computer.

You can force re-hashing by unplugging the pen without ejecting the usb 
disk. Warning: you should only do this if you did not modify any files 
on the pen while it was plugged in. otherwise you may fry the filesystem.

Cheers,

Till
