Yes, remove the shutdown overlay and the shutdown monitor extension.
The python script should call pcp rb for a reboot. Or pcp sd for

The shutdown works.
Unfortunately, the fan does not start.

I got the jivelite working.
My install followed Chill his instructions from page 8

reboot but carried on with the edits and did a backup and reboot at the
end.

Just a thought - have you enlarged the SD partition?
I enlarged mine to 500mb, which is far bigger than needed. But is the
default 50mb? That might be a bit small, and might cause random
problems - mine's currently using about 48mb.

The enter/confirm button, using the configuration above, would be the X
button, which takes you RIGHT. The Y button takes you LEFT, to back out
of a selection. Brightness control isn't working in Jivelite in the

'pigs PRS 13 100' sets that range to 0-100.
