ACPI wakeup tool Description

ACPI wakeup tool is a little commandline application that allows your linux computer to wakeup from soft-off (S5). ACPI wakeup tool is a little commandline application that allows your linux computer to wakeup from soft-off (S5) at a predetermined time.If you want to have a server turn off at night but poweron it selfs in the morning you would have to set this manually each and every day, writing a shell script is possible but handling dates is a pain on the shell. Hence I wrote this tool to be a quick way to set the ACPI wakeup time.It was tested on an ASUS A78N8X LA, this is a nForce2 chipset manufactered by Asus for HP. However this should work on many different motherboards.Install this application and add it to your shutdown scripts. That way when the computer gets shutdown this tool set the next wakeup time into the BIOS.Installation:Place wakeup in /usr/sbin Create a file in init.d called wakeup with the following content: #!/bin/bash#OPTIONS="7:30:00". /lib/lsb/init-functionsif ; then log_begin_msg "Setting RTC Wake time" /usr/sbin/wakeup $OPTIONS log_end_msg $? exitfiif ; then log_begin_msg "Setting RTC Wake time" /usr/sbin/wakeup $OPTIONS log_end_msg $? exitfiecho "Unrecognised option "$1""exitModify the wakeup time to your liking Symlink from the runlevel that you are using, for me that was runlevel 2ln /etc/init.d/wakeup /etc/rc2.d/S71wakeup -s
