Jun 22 09:53:57 <alx__> anybody a hint for me?
Jun 22 10:00:57 <KotCzarny> what was the question?
Jun 22 10:59:02 <alx__> Hello. I just installed mpd on my n900 to server music in my living room, everything is fine so far. I noticed, that wlan is going to sleep after several hours and wanted to set a cronjob wich pings every hour to avoid this. Hm, there ist no cron :). Is alarmd the solution?I need some help.
Jun 22 10:59:33 <KotCzarny> you can install crond
Jun 22 11:00:17 <KotCzarny> or use open a terminal and start ping -i 3600
Jun 22 11:04:48 <alx__> crond actually is not available in my repo. ping -i could be a solution, because I do not turn off the n900
Jun 22 11:06:02 <bencoh> http://maemo.org/packages/view/cron/
Jun 22 11:06:40 <bencoh> I think alarmd is the way to go on maemo, but I dont know how to do that with it
Jun 22 11:07:55 <alx__> alarmd is allready installed, but I've found no docu yet
Jun 22 11:07:56 <bencoh> http://my-maemo.com/software/applications.php?fldAuto=1300&faq=43
Jun 22 11:15:18 <alx__> is there perhaps a text-file for alarmd, to handle it like cronjob?
Jun 22 11:15:34 <bencoh> there is a file, I'm not sure you can just edit it
Jun 22 11:31:41 <alx__> :) n900 hasn't "-i" as ping option
Jun 22 11:32:48 <KotCzarny> grab some normal ping then
Jun 22 11:33:01 <KotCzarny> or you can just replace it with some simple wget
Jun 22 11:33:10 <KotCzarny> you may grab your routers home page for example
Jun 22 11:33:55 <bencoh> while true; do ping; sleep 3600; done ?
Jun 22 11:34:15 <KotCzarny> or that
Jun 22 11:34:32 <bencoh> oh, looks like I installed a real "ping" on mine
Jun 22 11:34:43 <bencoh> netutils/iputils or something I guess
Jun 22 11:35:04 <bencoh> oh no, that's just "ping"
Jun 22 11:51:51 <alx__> ok, I followed bencoh's suggestion, with ping option -c. Perhaps I will later install cron. Thank you so far
Jun 22 12:06:18 <zGrr> moin :)
Jun 22 13:30:59 <shapeshi1ter> Is there any way to obtain an N950?
Jun 22 13:34:13 <L29Ah> i saw it for sale for $1k on ebay some half a year ago
Jun 22 14:31:56 <shapeshi1ter> amazing
Jun 22 14:32:19 <shapeshi1ter> We live in a shit age for mobile devices...
Jun 22 16:25:13 <sixwheeledbeast> shapeshi1ter: compared to what age?
Jun 22 16:43:45 <Vajb> not stone age, for sure
Jun 22 16:44:13 <bencoh> stones are pretty mobile though
Jun 22 16:44:51 <KotCzarny> and much more resilient
Jun 22 16:46:47 <L29Ah> i can charge a stone in less than a second!
Jun 22 16:48:29 <KotCzarny> and some stones are prettier than average
Jun 22 16:58:07 <sixwheeledbeast> stones are also useful for throwing at iOS and Android devices...
Jun 22 17:08:06 * ecc3g buys an android phone... to buy time for n900 surgery :(
Jun 22 17:09:03 <ecc3g> had a close call. my n900 kept on crashing over the weekend, i thought it was the end... but then I found out the microsd card died and swapping to a dead microsd card causes crashes.
Jun 22 17:09:23 <ecc3g> still have to fix the earpiece...
Jun 22 17:20:16 <ecc3g> need to get another microsd card... I think that the sacrificial microsd card did its deed to extend the life of the n900 :D
Jun 22 17:21:00 <bencoh> yup <3
