Does this only work on x86_64?

Works fine on X86_32 for me --Benjsc 12:56, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

It works on 32 bit as well. If you miss /proc/acpi/alarm then it seems that this dissapears if you run smp.


Does anyone have experience with the Via EPIA boards? I'm not able to get it working and thus still use nvram-wakeup...

How do I use ACPI wakeups with MythWelcome? The instructions for it are all for using it with nvram-wakeup. --Turpie 11:09, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/2838 Looks like capability for ACPI with MythWelcome is coming. Hopefully we'll see an update to the WIKI once 0.21 comes out or sooner if someone with svn version gets ambitious.

2.6.22 Kernels

I just updated my fedora 7 kernel and apparently the 2.6.22 linux kernel removes the /proc/acpi/alarm feature, see http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/6/22/320 does anyone know the new method for these new kernels? --Vossman 06:18, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

There is no documentation, only some hidden description in the git commit that introduced this feature. So I wrote some short documentation, but it isn't included in the source tree yet, AFAIK.

It can be found here:
