I have a question about Telnet. Anybody know why the connection dies in the middle of a session? My Kobo Clara isn’t asleep, yet suddenly the terminal stops receiving commands. If I force quit the session, I can no longer connect via telnet to my Clara. The process seems hung on the Clara (though it functions as an eReader with no issues). I have to power cycle it in order to regain telnet access. Then the connection dies again after a few minutes.

I’m using the default config:

Code:
menu_item :main    :Telnet             :cmd_spawn          :quiet:/bin/mount -t devpts | /bin/grep -q /dev/pts || { /bin/mkdir -p /dev/pts && /bin/mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts; }
chain_success                        :cmd_spawn          :quiet:/usr/bin/pkill -f "^/usr/bin/tcpsvd -E 0.0.0.0 1023" || true && exec /usr/bin/tcpsvd -E 0.0.0.0 1023 /usr/sbin/telnetd -i -l /bin/login
chain_success                        :dbg_toast          :Started Telnet server on port 1023.

Have you got WiFi forced on? Kobo is really aggressive about shutting down the Wifi unless you force on. There's a setting in NickelMenu for that (nickel_setting : force_wifi) which you may want to include in your chain.
