gathered firmware suggestions in a list and edit that list and extend

current firmware: 2.6.7 TEST

- adding start fan speed for auto-mode
- tail option for showing last x rows of log files.
- using help screen for sort of change log in the firmware
- may be watchdog checking network state. had hung system after network outage, not reachable due to DHCP. can be probably worked around by fixed IP.
- scheduling certains mining speeds(voltages)  <- will try to implement
- individual voltage limits as right now for the back chips <- will consider / note: can be done quite well with max. PSU watts at least per loop
- Timezone "bug"? first page graphs are always UTC? <- will consider
- enable API in own subnet/net by web interface <-  common! change /etc/cgminer.conf.template with ssh it seems to works not straight forward at least not for all
- include fan speed in API datasets <- not likely, use remote ssh to change /etc/mg_custom_rate fan speed OUTPUT is obviosly meant
- other pool options than failover only <- common! change /etc/cgminer.conf.template with ssh
- Graphs on the first webguy page, there should be a button to disable some/all of them. <- you can reset them with a button. Disable them in /etc/cron.d with ssh
- Poll page could be managed on the front page with up&down buttons on each pool
- GUI switches to turn off SSH would also be a good thing, plus for advanced users some sort of iptables in the OS for security. <- Use big random password  from UI to disable it. Will consider adding iptables.
- true fan speed control by target temp
- change host name in web interface
- sum of PSU(unknown) input watts in addition to DC2DC watts, either on ASIC Stats page or main page, as for estimate of power at wall or PSU efficiency <- will implement in 2.6.7. For sp20 I assume 90% efficiency
- show ASIC Stats


Going to comment on this again - Im tired of changing the API setting via SSH, and on the hundreds of machines ive done, no reason not to have it in the GUI.

Fair point, I did want to give you a heads up in case it will help.. I took to building a job manager that automatically scans my network for hosts and plumbs them into my management webapp, can make changes to hundreds of machines in a minute or two..
