Hi all,
i have a kindle4NT (duh, why else should i be writing here) and i'm also not afraid of a little linux and hacking.
i'm currently searching for a crontab on my kindle, because i want to download my home-made newsfeed subscriptions automaticly. (this used to work when i was still in trial period on an amazon subscribtion to the times, but stopped working when i cancelled the subscription).
basicly all i need is for the kindle to wake up around 05:00 and "sync and check for new items"
however, the crontab -l and -e commands complain about missing the /var/spool/cron/crontabs folder.
creating this folder and a crontab file is no problem, but its a temporary file system, so i guess the changes won't stick.
also, does the cron deamon work on the kindle4NT? is it enabled by default?
another way to go would be to find out what changes on the kindle filesystem whenever i subscribe to a newspaper, has anybody done that before?
