Yesterday I was recompiling my kernel when I read the help dialog about RTAS...
It says there that you can set the startup and shutdown time of the computer (the same way that the Energy Settings on Mac OS 9)... I tried to play aroundwith it, but the examples always point to /proc/rtas/whatever, and that doesn't exist, but I do have the /proc/device-tree/rtas. I know it's a read-only, but the kernel docs suggest that if you have the entries there (/proc/device-tree/rtas) you should be able to do somethings with it... + If you don't know if you can use RTAS look into + /proc/device-tree/rtas. If there are some entries, it is very likely + that you will be able to use RTAS. I currently have these entries (it's a B&W G3 server) /proc/device-tree/rtas/name /proc/device-tree/rtas/restart-rtas /proc/device-tree/rtas/nvram-fetch /proc/device-tree/rtas/nvram-store /proc/device-tree/rtas/get-time-of-day /proc/device-tree/rtas/set-time-of-day /proc/device-tree/rtas/set-time-for-power-on /proc/device-tree/rtas/event-scan /proc/device-tree/rtas/check-exception /proc/device-tree/rtas/read-pci-config /proc/device-tree/rtas/write-pci-config /proc/device-tree/rtas/set-indicator /proc/device-tree/rtas/power-off /proc/device-tree/rtas/system-reboot /proc/device-tree/rtas/get-time-for-power-on /proc/device-tree/rtas/rtas-version /proc/device-tree/rtas/rtas-event-scan-rate /proc/device-tree/rtas/rtas-error-log-max /proc/device-tree/rtas/rtas-size /proc/device-tree/rtas/linux,phandle Tnx Benja
