Re: location tracking

 

thats interesting for people who want to run this without RW just have to change the install script to use wget if this works :)

its working nicely though im just going to test when i move location and see if i need to change the crontab it installed to a dbus crontab so it runs on the phone in the background. Then i need to test changing frequency to see battery consumption as a fifteen minute update seems better than hourly for me.

The only thing the cron uses curl for seems to be to call a single URI. One might want to try replacing it with something like "wget" to get rid of the RW requirement. ;)
