You can do this with alarmD fairly easily, or if you're not quite so picky you can do it with your python script itself... just put your code into a loop that repeats forever, and at the end of the loop (just before you start again), put a nice long sleep in.

For example:

Code:

import time

while 1:
    //Your python code goes here


   //Now we wait for 5 ( 5 minutes * 60 seconds) minutes
   time.sleep(5 * 60)

Thanks!
