Subject Getting cron tab to work, argh

hello,
did anyone notice under goodies you can setup a cron job thru the control panel? i did and the wiki instructions don't discuss this at all. they only talk about the shell stuff, which i am a newbie and don't know how to do.

my problem is that the #$%* cron job is not working even though it says active, my program says that cron is not running and the program says "waiting to start". i have a program that needs cron to run and i put what they told me to put in the "command to run" section:

env php –q /home/.gandalf/myusername/domainnamehere.com/news/admin/cron/cron.php

and then i set the time on there to "custom" for when to run, then i put 1 minute, every hour, every day, every month, every day of week.

so what else? why isn't it running? does it take a few days to start working? what the heck???
