<div dir="ltr"><div>I am using a Harmony One on my Mythbuntu 12.04 frontend (MythTV .26, latest fixes). I've been able to get it to wake using the Harmony One and an MCE USB iR receiver and just about everything works well, but I cannot get it to sleep/suspend with the button on the remote. I'm not so much concerned with that so I'm trying to use a cron job to evoke pm-suspend daily at 2:30 a.m. I had this working previously on another front end and it was working fine. For some reason, it will not run on this purpose-built frontend. </div>
<div> </div><div>Here are the contents of my crontab file:</div><div> </div><div>30 2 * * * root /usr/sbin/pm-suspend 2>&1 ./home/user/Templog/Cron.log<br><br>The pm-suspend command never runs, so I attempted to force it to log to a cron.log log file, which doesn't work either. I can manually run the command "sudo pm-suspend" and it suspends just fine, so I'm not sure what the issue may be. I don't see any entries about failing to run in the syslog, but for some reason </div>
<div> </div><div><em><u>Issue 2</u></em></div><div>If I wake this front end from suspend, it often will not reconnect the NIC and just hangs at a black screen until some timeout value is exceeded, at which point the Myth frontend tells me it cannot connect to my backend. The motherboard is an ASRock B75M-DGS 2.0 with the latest BIOS. This motherboard has an onboard Realtek RTL8111E NIC, which, from the best of my research should be supported in *buntu. When this happens, if I reboot, it resumes working fine. I did try updating the driver to the Unix/Linux driver listed on ASRock's website, but this did not change anything.</div>
<div> </div><div>This motherboard works well otherwise and was only $54, so the question is, do I replace the motherboard (still returnable) with a more expensive one without Realtek LAN (I realize that Realtek LAN is supposed to be widely supported but this has soured me on it), or should I just add a $30ish Intel PCI-e NIC. The problem with adding a PCI-e NIC is that I often use wake on LAN and I'm not sure if the motherboard supports it with PCI-e devices (my last one didn't, but it was an Intel OEM Dell board).</div>
<div> </div><div>Thanks for any suggestions.</div></div>
