I'm currently trying to activate the RTC alarm that I setup under CMOS, which supposed to wakeup the system at certain time on the daily basis. If I shutdown the system under Windows OS, RTC alarm wakeup the system as intended; however, after shutdown under Linux (Fedora - kernel ver. 2.6.21-1.3240.fc8) it fails to wakeup the system. The system's chipset that is FAILING under linux: NVIDIA MCP61S motherboard: ECS GeFforce6100S-M The system's chipset that is WORKING OK under linux: RS482 (northbridge) , SB400/SB450 (southbridge) motherboard: ECS RS482-M Sorry: resent due to missing attachments ----------------------------------------------- Any suggested workaround solution would be appreciated. Attached is a copy of the outputs from: dmesg, /proc/acpi/wakeup, dmidecode thanks. eric
