Hi all,

please, how do i set the alarm in /proc/acpi/alarm?

cotonou:~ # echo 15:22:47 > /proc/acpi/alarm
cotonou:~ # cat /proc/acpi/alarm
2003-01-24 23:47:47
cotonou:~ #

That seems to be wrong, or is it buggy?

What does this alarm affect?
I assume, it just generates an event in /proc/acpi/events, right?

You may want to check if alarm was not broken with seq_file changes.

Worst form of spam? Adding advertisment signatures ala sourceforge.net.
What goes next? Inserting advertisment *into* email?
