Hello! I'm trying to get suspend to RAM working on my Gigabyte GA-K8N51PVMT-9 running Debian (testing). What I initially want to manage is to have the system suspend and then wake up on a specific date/time. I was thinking that the suspend was done by: - Create a file /etc/acpi/events/suspend containing: event=suspend action=/etc/acpi/suspend.sh The /etc/acpi/suspend.sh will contain necessary actions to unload modules etcetera and the following line: echo '2006-07-05 20:27:00' > /proc/acpi/alarm The wake up will then take place when the date/time is. What else is necessary for the wake up? Is it possible to trigger an event with for example: echo 'suspend' > /proc/acpi/event I can't get this to work which makes me feel I am wrong with my understanding of how ACPI works. Any help or information would be greatly appreciated. Below are some information that might be helpful. dmesg | grep ACPI ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [APCZ] (IRQs 20 21 22 23) *0, disabled.
