I've tried and tried to modify the PowerCtrl plugin to allow standby or hibernation on windows systems..all to no avail so far. I do hope to revisit this sometime soon. Absent that, if your bios supports rtc (real-time clock) wake-up, program the bios to wake the server at a pre-determined

With the SB architecture, there's not much you can wait from the SB. But if I were you, I would look at the tools you can find for your bios configuration. A lot of motherboards have clock wake up capability in the bios. And I know too that tools exists to program this bios parameter from the

My via mother board offers some crude scheduling in bios, so that i can booth my server for example every morning ? (I think its even possible to schedule shutdown ) Would it matter of the server is on half an hour before wakeup time ? You could set the server to wake at the same time every day,

I've got WOL working, in so much as I can leave my PC in Sleep mode and pressing power on a SqueezeBox will wake the server up. However, I'm wondering if there is anything I can do to wake my PC up when the alarm time is reached (or slightly before). Eg. is it possible for the SB firmware to
