I seem to think that setiatome would be better started in your /etc/rc.local
startup file. Think about it - crontab is something that is for repeating
commands at specified times (such as getting news every hour or what have
you). You're likely to want to start setiathome when you boot up and have it
run forever, not start it up every thirty minutes :).
