Kill the GUI ?
Hi,
Is it possible to kill the GUI on the K4NT? Looking at ps aux, I can't easily guess which process might be the GUI.
I've written a Weather HUD in python. A shell script puts the Kindle to sleep, and when it wakes up, the python script runs, downloading the weather info, and rendering the image to a PNG file. It then calls eips to display it.
However, when the kindle wakes from sleep, part of the GUI appears, overwriting the screen during the downloading & rendering process. I'd like to avoid this, perhaps by simply killing the GUI process.
Is this possible, and would there be any disastrous consequences if I did?
