Paperwhite - Page is not updating - how to debug

Open kafisatz opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Thanks for developing this.

My kindle fetches the image I specified, when I run start.sh. But then it never updates the image. I just stays at the original image My cron expression is set to 15 minutes, see below.

Any idea why my screen is not updating? I think I also amended some of the other settings (partial update -> 1)

It seems like my kindle (I think I have a PW3, Generation 7; but Amazon's naming is confusing!) is lacking some files that your script uses....

So I have fixed this issue (for my Paperwhite Kindle). let me know if I should open a pull request. This code works for me: https://github.com/kafisatz/kindle-dash
