Firefox idle delay in seconds
Firefox idle delay in seconds
Is there anyway to change the Firefox idle time from minutes to seconds? Our previous kiosk software was set to 30 seconds and with Porteus the lowest we can go is 1 minute. I noticed an older version of Porteus allowed for seconds but I don't want to downgrade to that version. I tried putting in 0.5 for the delay and received an arithmetic error. Any other workarounds for that? Not a huge deal but was just curious. Thanks for the great software!!!

Re: Firefox idle delay in seconds
hello Stan,
unfortunately i cant change this parameter from minutes to seconds as it would affect 'automatic updates' subscribers and we target 'setup and forget' approach (backward compatibility is a must). please do as follows:
a) remaster the ISO as per kiosk documentation: http://porteus-kiosk.org/kiosk-customization.html
b) edit 003-settings.xzm/opt/porteus-scripts/firefox-idle-watcher and change:
to your value, for example:
that should do it.

Code: Select all
FFIDLE=`grep FFIDLE= /etc/xdg/openbox/autostart | cut -d= -f2`
Code: Select all
FFIDLE=30
