Hi,

I would like to know if there is any way to schedule a timed wakeup from
sleep/suspend mode, like the "Wake the computer to run this job" option
in the Windows XP Scheduled Tasks. I'm using my desktop as a Personal
Video Recorder, and this works very well in Windows XP. Since I'm
running dual-boot with Fedora 7, I was thinking that I might try to
figure out how to do the same thing under Fedora. Is it even possible?


I use nvram-wakeup for my PVR.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/nvram-wakeup

However I do it from complete power-off (my bootup is *really* fast).
I don't know if it will work for ACPI resume, however it's worth a try.

Also, if your motherboard is not on the list, you can run the little
scan app to try to figure out the BIOS values, however it is a bit of
a hassle to run/setup.
