Weather Maps on Kindle

[yparitcher]

The K4NT has a different command for rtc, found after much trail and error.

lipc-set-prop -i  com.lab126.powerd rtcWakeup 100

however this can only be set when the kindle is in the readyToSuspend state which it enters for a few seconds before sleeping.

this can be trigger by writing a background script to detect a kindle in readyToSuspend and optionaly wakeup state to have it run a script and reset th wakeup clock.

for example:
background script

#!/bin/sh

# location of your program
PROGRAM=/mnt/us/program.sh
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8


do_program()
{
	if [[ -f "$PROGRAM" ]]; then
	  # run program function to set picture
	  $PROGRAM do
	fi
}

run_program()
{
	if [[ -f "$PROGRAM" ]]; then
	  # run program function to reset wakup rtc
	  $PROGRAM run
	fi
}

lipc-wait-event -m com.lab126.powerd goingToScreenSaver,readyToSuspend | while read event; do
	case "$event" in
		goingToScreenSaver*)
			do_program;;
		readyToSuspend*)
			run_program;
	esac
done;

#!/bin/sh

do()
{
	# set picture using fbink or eips
}

run()
{
	do
	# set to your delay between picture changes
	DELTA=$(( `date +%s` + 300 ))
	lipc-set-prop -i  com.lab126.powerd rtcWakeup $DELTA
}

# Main
case "${1}" in
	"run" )
		${1}
	;;
	"do" )
		${1}
	;;
	* )
		run
	;;
esac

return 0

see https://github.com/yparitcher/kindle...kround#L44-L54 for usage

however as NiLuJe said it might be slightly different for your device, try running the command in divvernent sleep states and see the results

Hi all!

Is there a list available of the different sleep States? Or how can i find out which States exist?
