hi ,
I would like to have my PC (desktop) awaking twice a day when I am far from it (hollidays for example).

I wrote some scripts to manage the time the PC awakes combined with cron task.
The trouble is that when I use

Code:
rtcwake -m no -t $tmstp
it seems to work and I get the following message

Quote:

rtcwake : on considère que l'horloge matérielle utilise l'échelle UTC…
rtcwake : « wakeup » (réveil) avec /dev/rtc0 à Wed Jan 30 13:40:00 2013

Translation of line 1:
rtcwake : we consider that the hardware clock uses UTC




but if I use
Code:
rtcwake -m disk -t $tmstp
or
Code:
rtcwake -m off -t $tmstp
I have a message telling this

Quote:
rtcwake : on considère que l'horloge matérielle utilise l'échelle UTC…
rtcwake: échec d'ouverture : /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/device/power/wakeup: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type
rtcwake: /dev/rtc0 non activé pour les événements « wakeup » (réveil)

Translation of line 1: --> rtcwake : we consider that the hardware clock uses UTC
Translation of line 2 --> rtcwake : failed to open /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/device/power/wakeup : no such file or folder
Translation of line 3 --> rtcwake : /dev/rtc0 not activated for «wakeup» event.


How to activate /dev/rtc0 for «wakeup» events ?
