Hi everybody!!
This is my first post,so,first of all,an important warning: I'm Spanish,and all the English I know is the English what I've learned at school(not the one that teachers have teached me ),so,sorry by my rusty English
Well,the suggestion I'm going to make is to be able to take total control over the the LED.I want to mean,the colour it has once the XBOX is turned on.
I want to have the led always off,and I've tried this typing "led xxxx" and "blink",but when I do an emerge,the LED turns on again.
Well,I request you again to apologize my language :S
(In Spanish I talk relatively very well )
Byes!
Total control over the LED
Oh,I knew that there's is a daemon which controls fan speed,but nothing about one similar with the LED :Oorochi wrote:you need to edit some config files or turn off the daemon that runs that changes the color.
you could just delete the files, but no one likes error msg's that pop up randomly
Can you tell me how is the daemon called,and the path of the configuration files?
I searched files named with *led* on /etc/conf.d ,but I found nothing
Thanks a lot for the helping
Byes!
poking around, i think its a standalone app, tho everything shallax uses calls it lol, startup script, magic etc.
i suppose you could do this tho i havent tested it, and it is 3.30am
(as root)
mv /bin/led /bin/led.backup
echo "#!/bin/bash" > /bin/led
chmod 755 /bin/led
essentially what happens is instead of the command being called /bin/led <colors> and having the executable /bin/led chat with /dev/ic2/0 its just running an empty shell script that doesnt do anything, im not sure what the status is of the led when its started (if its on by default) You could change it to this if you want every time its run to turn off the led you could try
(as root)
mv /bin/led /bin/led.backup
echo "#!/bin/bash" > /bin/led
echo "/bin/led.backup xxxx" >> /bin/led
chmod 755 /bin/led
thats the best way i can think of it without breaking existing scripts i.e. magic, its quick, its dirty, and it prolly work work for every situation (background daemon) but its worth a shot
to undo what was done above
rm /bin/led
mv /bin/led.backup /bin/led
