thank you so much.  now my reef tank has a pseudo wave maker thanks to Linux,
X10, and cron.

one last thing:

in root's log i'm getting this error:

Subject: Cron <root@xander> /usr/local/bin/br --house=B -n 1

ioctl: Input/output error

it's only during the 'on' cron job (not the 'off' job).  what would be causing
this?

thanks again!
