I tested wakealarm with changed BIOS setting. I set PowerUp method to "Everyday" instead of "ByDate". Then applied same procedure: $ sudo sh -c 'echo 0 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm' $ sudo sh -c 'echo `date "+%s" -d "+ 5 minutes"` > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm'
Computer woke up after 5 minutes normally. Thus, time setting is correct. The whole problem is to set date. Fisslefink, could you please post your BIOS setting? Next item - there is significant difference between my and your cat /proc/driver/rtc listing in alarm date. Your alarm date is set to "****-**-**". Mine alarm date shows day of month. Could you please verify if your generated cat /proc/driver/rtc just after setting alarm? Thank you. Leann, is there any way to test Jaunty wakeup without installing it? (e.g. using just from live CD or using a virtual image?) It took me lot of time to setup current installation. :) Karel 2.6.27-9-generic Mobo: Asus A7V8X-X -- [GUTSY] RTC alarm does not retain setting from /proc/acpi/alarm https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/139846 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
