That is exactly what is happening. I have a recent build (olpc-build states "10.2.0"). Just wol would fix this use case (yum, firefox downloads, etc) -- I guess with the wakeup _not_ triggering screen brightness up-and-down. Otherwise it'll be a strobelight ;-) So perhaps there is no need for counting packets on eth0. Paul's olpc-nosleep is also great to have for whatever scripts that don't trigger teh "cpu or io are busy, don't sleep" thresholds. m -- [email protected] [email protected] -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
