Topic: Bug in time sync on infocast 8 / chumby 8 devices ?
So i was going through the bootup sequence for infocasts and chumby 8's and i just realized that unlike the chumby 1 / infocast 3.5 it fails to execute ntp on bootup.
which basically means the time will drift throughout the day.
i checked with a ps and there is no ntp server at all in the process list either.
is this an intentional oversight ? or is the firmware buggy ?
edit : i tried modifying my offline firmware to correct this bug and if i execute -
if true; then ( /bin/sleep 30; /usr/bin/ntpd -g -x -f /psp/ntp.drift ) & fi
on the infocasts command line it runs ntp normally. however if i put it in my debugchumby it fails. anyone know why ?
