Yes, I considered a nightly cron reboot, but the issue is that after the reboot I want the Kindle to come back up as a normal reader with no autostart of the dashboard script. I take it travelling occasionally and need it to just work as a Kindle out of the box after a reboot.

If I set up a cronjob to reboot at 3am, I'd also need some kind of autostart with a flag file to bring the dashboard back up automatically, otherwise I'd have to SSH in every morning to restart the script manually, which defeats the purpose of an always-on display. It's solvable, but it adds complexity I was hoping to avoid by finding a proper fix for the underlying issue.
