This may seem like a ridiculous question but is there such a thing as a hidden alarm?
Because every night between about 01:15 and 03:40 my phone will automatically go into offline mode and then back to online mode afterwards but I can't find a alarm entry anywhere
But I do remember testing such an alarm so my work couldn't call me at night but can't remember which program I used, it's not much of a problem normally as I'm asleep so had forgotten about it but last night I wasn't and a saw it happen and now I want to stop it.
I'm stumped and any help will be appreciated.

Thanks a lot for the contribution!

Why didn't you include this part of my patch? W/o it I can't save an event with non-english name.

line 110 of alarmed.py should be:
print "\t" + info + ": " + unicode(i[info]).encode("utf-8")

No, they will not work anymore. ProfilesX has the same (and better) functionality than tweakr and integrates much more nicely than tweakr. It's also still active while tweakr has been dead for the last 6 months. I suggest you either don't upgrade alarmed or switch to ProfilesX. Sorry.

Whoops, sorry about that. I got errors when using that part of the patch but they were related to the fact that most interestingly, I've been using completely outdated pyside packages! They weren't upgraded because I didn't explicitly require them. So to say it out loud:

The pyside-* packages in the repo are obsolete and very old. If ever you need PySide packages, make sure you install the python-pyside.* packages!

I now included the fix and changed the dependencies of the alarmed package so now any users who accidentally still used the old version like I did should be upgraded.

I also included your small bugfix for -CL.

So now, build 2.0.1-2 is in -devel.

Sorry to hear that. As tweakr offers some more useful functions I'd keep using it anyway and I'm not sure wether both will work together. So I'll stay on current version for now and think over it.

@x-lette I uninstalled tweakr and installed profilesx and it is better. What are the "more useful functions"?

Regarding the profiles I believe that there are better solutions. But other options tweakr offers are:

snap icons to grid
remapping of short-, long- and double press of power key
disabling of unlocking device when camera lens gets opened

I don't want to miss one of them. Maybe there are other apps offering similar functionality but why should I replace one app by two or three or even more? tweakr still works for me so I currently don't see a reason to change it.

I'm with x-lette. I'm quite happy using tweakr.

Would it be possible to include support for both tweakr and profilesx? Seems like some folks might get caught off guard if they aren't following the thread, and suddenly lose functionality.
