I’m not a developer but maybe a pollen module would be nice or if it already exists I’d like to hear about it https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/pollen/overview

@evroom

should it be modified in this way?

output HDMI-A-1 --on
Into
output HDMI-A-0 --on

@Sam-0 this is the result

checked the cron see below

ok i checked some more and did some tests

when I execute the following I get the error message that I also see in the log

/usr/bin/wlr-randr --output H DMI-A-1 --off
failed to connect to display

also running the sh files via putty gives the error
it seems that the command:
/usr/bin/wlr-randr --output H DMI-A-1 --off
the error message gives the question is this command incorrect or is there an underlying problem?

unfortunately it still doesn’t work what am I doing

wrong?!

cron info

on sh file

off sh file

error logfile:

@evroom Thanks for your explanation, I have made adjustments and will check tonight if it works. I will report this back. Thanks for the effort.

I thought it was right but now the rights on the sh files are set to 0777 and also on the folders
I also did a test to see if I could execute the sh files, this works tonight the cron should execute it, let me know if it works

i created two files
off.sh and on.sh
they contain the following lines

wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --off
wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --on

i also created a folder
with the following rights:
cmod 777
the cron contains the following lines:
unfortunately this does not work what is wrong?

@Sam-0 thanks I will test it and share the result with you

Re: [Cron Job Question](/tI used a cron job to turn my screen off and on I still want to do this I understand that the addressing of the monitor has changed and now only the code below works:

Turn off display Sunday - Thursday at 22:00

00 22 * ​​* 0-4 wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --off

Turn off display Friday - Saturday at 22:45

45 22 * ​​* 5,6 wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --off

Turn on screen Monday - Friday at 7:00

00 07 * * 1-5 wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --on

Turn on screen Saturday - Sunday at 8:00

00 08 * * 6,0 wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --onopic/16967/cron-job-question)

i see that running the commands:
wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --off
wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --on
works fine
only putting this in cron and making it work didn’t work. i think i need to point the above cron job to files to have it run by cronjob can someone give a good example of what this looks like
