use sh script for vibration test

hi.

i want to make a sh-file so that i can execut it and see if my phone is working correct.

for this i want to check the vibration-function.

i found this:

Code:

    #!/bin/sh

    echo 255 > /sys/devices/platform/neo1973-vibrator.0/leds/neo1973:vibrator/brightness

    sleep 1

    echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/neo1973-vibrator.0/leds/neo1973:vibrator/brightness

but "neo1973" isn't maemo ;)

so where can i find this on maemo?

this file will also be used in pidgin as vibration alarm on new messages.

thx for your help!

From Jebba's DBUS wiki page:

Quote:

dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=com.nokia.mce /com/nokia/mce/request com.nokia.mce.request.req_vibrator_pattern_activat e string:'PatternChatAndEmail'

There shouldn't be a space in the middle of activate - it looks like "com.nokia.mce.request.req_vibrator_pattern_activa te" is too long for the forum...

/sys/class/leds/twl4030:vibrator/brightness

I suggest you use dbus though, have a look @ the wiki or use the phone-control package.
