Now that we are done nitpicking, can we discuss about how to fix > rtcwake to work on normal systems where pm-utils is being used? i wasnt nitpicking. it seemed to me that you wanted to take rtcwake in the direction of not supporting suspend at all and making people do it other ways (i.e. requiring pm-utils). by pointing out that rtcwake does actually work as originally intended (i.e. not requiring external packages), we can agree that dropping the code in question isnt going to happen. extending it to work with pm-utils for the cases where people want that is fine of course. -mike
