Hi Alex,

To me, this is really looking like a kernel/acpi bug (possibly Arch 
specific, I haven't tried any other distros) as I have tried 2 different 
systems, 1 x86_32 (Via chipset), 1 x86_64 (nvidia chipset), both have 
the same problem of waking up at midnight if the time is set for the 
next day when using 2.6.26, both work fine with 2.6.25.
