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". ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- acpi wakeup doesn't work with HP tx2510us https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/307090 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
