thanks andrew! i really appreciate your second point about the project not being ready and us having many options for people to get in. do the hair kandi people have other ways of getting in? i think they're in a difficult spot because george doesn't want them to keep the door open but now it seems like they might not have another way to let their clients in (maybe they do?). if we can help them come up with a way to let their clients in (keypad, buzzer, whatever), i think that will go a long way.

Here's a suggestion: I think the root of a lot of these problems is the Rasberry pi. I propose we off load the keypad functionality to another computer that calls the pi via HTTP to open the door.

Also please keep in mind that the keypad is an ongoing project. It's in alpha/prototype stage right now. It is not a well tested production device and should not be treated like one. We have multiple ways to get in to that door (5, last time I counted) so lets make sure that people who need to get in are aware of at least one backup. Also if we want something reliable then we should really look in to purchasing a system that is already in production.

hi all,

folks from hair kandi are here and they want to know what it would take in order to have either their own buzzer or consistent keypad access and what the ETA might be on a fix to the keypad. i'm afraid i don't know what to tell them...

I looked at it for a couple of hours yesterday.  It seems like sometimes
when a key combination is entered, it causes the raspi to crash.
Strange behavior.

I also changed the init.d script, since it wasn't shutting down properly
and when 'start' was called it wasn't daemonizing.
