Hi!

I'm running a kernel 2.4.24 with patch acpi-20040211-2.4.24. Generaly, this seems to work. I.e., I can do this:

echo 2004-02-22 15:00:00 >/proc/acpi/alarm
echo 5 >/proc/acpi/sleep

As expected, the computer will start up at the given time.

But when I shutdown with "shutdown -h 0" instead of "echo 5 >/proc/acpi/sleep", the computer will not wakeup at the programmed time.

I've disabled APM with "apm=off" as kernel parameter, so I thought shutdown should use ACPI to switch to S5, shouldn't it?

Any ideas what I did wrong or what I might have missed?

Thanks,

Tobias

/proc/acpi/sleep", the computer will not wakeup at the programmed time.

Just if someone else stumbles across this problem, when setting HWCLOCKACCESS=no in /etc/default/rcS, shutdown and wakeup seem to work perfectly.

bye,
