Public bug reported:

I have an HP tx2510.
Following instructions on
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/ACPI_Wakeup#Using_.2Fsys.2Fclass.2Frtc.2Frtc0.2Fwakealarm
(which do work on another laptop), it doesn't wake up from sleep.

After giving the commands:

   echo 0 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm
   echo `date '+%s' -d '+ 200 minutes'` > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm

I can see with

   cat /proc/driver/rtc

that the wakeup seems to be set correctly. But I tried to wait a lot of time (6 
hours: notice my local time differs only 1 hour from UTC) and it never wakes up.
Notice that:
- in the BIOS there is no option to enable/disable it, but it does work from 
Windows Vista. In particular, I tried all the programs from 
http://acpi-wakeup.qarchive.org/ , and WakeupOnStandby works (while WakeUp and 
AtriseWakeup don't).
- after (the acpi wakeup didn't work and) I manually wake up the computer, in 
the output of "cat /proc/driver/rtc" I can see that 

    alrm_date   : 2008-12-11

has become

    alrm_date   : ****-**-**

(while the time line stays unchanged). This is also what happens when I
set an alarm in the past, so it seems to me OK.

uname -a says
    Linux vousci 2.6.27-7-generic #1 SMP Tue Nov 4 19:33:06 UTC 2008 x86_64 
GNU/Linux

I'm attaching the output of "sudo demidecode".
