Thanks for clarifying that: I never actually tested the patches with S5,
but forgot to mention it in the original mail. What I meant, anyway, is
that it is unlikely that the ACPI RTC alarm will wake the system up from a
hard power-off, although the type of chip the original poster uses might
have a difference.

Just FYI: wake-up from S4 works if I use Pat's patch from the above site
(ASUS L3C) and doesn't with the other patch.
Best regards,
