203.91.201.55: /* Bugs */

===Overview===
[http://maemo.org/packages/view/sleeper/ Sleeper] is a widget for the Maemo desktop which allows your [[Nokia N900|N900]] to pause the music player (or the [[Panucci]] audiobook player) after a defined amount of time (e.g. 15 minutes). It's handy when listening to music while falling asleep.

New features in '''Sleeper 1.0''' (not yet in Maemo Extras, see [http://maemo.org/packages/view/sleeper/ Sleeper in Maemo Extras]):
* Vertical or horizontal bar with configurable minute values
* Optional widget icon for easy purpose recognition
* Optional information banners (you know, the yellow ones)

Discussion takes place over at talk.maemo.org:

* [http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=40764 Time based Music Stopper for N900]

===Help===
If the widget doesn't show after installation, please reboot the device and add it again (through the Desktop Edit mode > Add Widget)

===Wishlist===
Use this space to add possible feature wishes:

===Bugs===
Use this paragraph to report possible bugs:
* the play button from the media player widget doesn't work with sleeper installed. it says that the audio is used by another program. after uninstall sleeper works fine

* I had defined multiple times like 1,3,5,10,15,20,30,45,60 in vertical mode
and when I tried to change the times back to 15,30,45 I am unable to see the settings button.

===Patches===
Use this space for submitting patches to Sleeper (twaelti will hopefully integrate them in one of the next releases, if the patch fits the goals of the Sleeper project):
