Hi I am using a 2.6.26-tuxonice kernel. ACPI wakeup works fine here on a
via epia sp8000, but there are several quirks depending on the
motherboard/chipset.

Ex. I had to disable the hwclock script thing tha writes the time to the
hwclock on shutdown etc.

Mostly to say that it is a least not a kernel/acpi which everyone is
experiencing
