I want to be able to start one of my machines with RTC Wakeup Alarm but it isn't working and I've just found out why.
If I cd into /sys/class/rtc/rtc0 and set the wakeup time as follows:
echo $(( $(cat since_epoch) + 300 )) > wakealarm
and then look to see what is there:
cat wakealarm
I get something like 2059580189 (which converts to a time in April) whereas from 'cat since_epoch' I get someting like 1204369402 (which converts to the current date/time).
Any ideas as to what may be happening here?
Did you ever make any progress on this?
I'm having terrible trouble trying to get this to work with my mini- itx board so any tips would be very well received ;)
Cheers,
Dave
Sorry Dave I haven't. I think that my board is described as a mini-atx but I don't know whether that would have any bearing on the matter.
Are you having the same stored 'time' trouble that I'm having or something else?
