See whats happening (telnet)

[dutchmatrix]

Normally if you log into telnet you only can see what programs are running.

But you can not see the output they generate.
By accident I got this working and could see all output in telnet.

What i did
Logged into telnet (obviously ;) )
Then i run /DISK1/system_tools/rcPatch

This normally is used to update the box with new firmware.
This will close all application programs
Your tv screen can confirm this.

At this moment only linux is running
The i run /MMP/usr/bin/S.sh
This is the application start up script

On your TV it looks as if the box has been rebooted (azbox splash screen etc)

On your tv all works again now but in telnet you can watch all the output generated by the application that i currently running

I've noticed something interesting in /MMP/usr/bin/S.sh, line 12 on this new firmware that I don't remember seeing on previous firmwares :



if [ -f /tmp/.front_pavo ] ; then
FAN_EXIST="yes"
vfd_display -td210 -fan on
fi

if [ -f /tmp/.front_aries ] ; then
FAN_EXIST="yes"
vfd_display -td210 -fan on
fi


can anyone with older firmware installed confirm this is new?
