Wake on RTC alarm?

Wake on RTC alarm?

[Nigel Cunningham]

Hi all.

Kernel 2.4.26.

I've fiddled a little today with getting my laptop to wake when the RTC 
alarm goes off. I can set the alarm, and can see that an interrupt 
occurs at the appointed time (cat /proc/interrupts). If however I 
suspend to disk, it doesn't power on. Is there further glue I need to 
make the alarm actually trigger a wake? I've looked at documentation 
that talks about enabling wake GPEs, and guess that is what I need. Am I 
right?

Laptop is an Omnibook XE3L-GF if its relevant.

Yes, you're right, and the wake-GPE fix is in the pipeline.
