                      Hey Daryl,<br>
                      <br>
                      recently I set up a new MythTV system (see
                      signature) and there I switched to the new method
                      of using only:<br>
                          <tt>/usr/sbin/rtcwake --date
                        "<datestring>" --mode no</tt><br>
                      to set the wakeup time.<br>
                      <br>
                      This works fine for my system.<br>
                      <br>
                      The MythTV wiki was quite confusing as there is a
                      lot of outdated and ambigous information, but you
                      can find the above mentioned call as well, if you
                      search for it.<br>
                      <br>
                      Btw., I made a small script to also update the LCD
                      display with the next scheduled automatic wakeup
                      time:<br>
                      <blockquote><font size="-2"><tt>me@mysystem:~$ cat
                            /usr/sbin/wakewrapper.sh </tt><tt><br>
                          </tt><tt>#!/bin/bash</tt><tt><br>
                          </tt><tt># Sets RTC wake time and inserts the
                            time into LCDd.conf for letting the display

                            system is off</tt><tt><br>
                          </tt><tt><br>

                          </tt></font></blockquote>
                      The sed command to update the LCDd.conf has to be
                      adapted to the target environment. It needs to
                      filter out the second GoodBye line, that should
                      not be overwritten. Mine begins with "H",
                      therefore the regex skips every GoodBye lines that
                      have a value beginning with "H".<br>
                      <br>
                      Have fun!<br>

    Your original post indicates failure to powerup at the appropriate
    time.<br>
    <br>
    Attached is the script autowakeuptest.sh I use to test wakeup on
    xubuntu systems (16.04 and up), it saves copy and paste from the
    Mythtv ACPI wiki page.<br>
    Just make it executable (chmod +x) and run it. If it does not
    powerup in 5 minutes that problem needs to be fixed.<br>
    <br>
    I have also attached an alternative script (autowakeuptest2.sh)
    which uses rtcwake instead. <br>
    <br>
    If you want to use rtcwake with mythtv you need to modify script in
    /usr/bin/setwakeup.sh as follows:<br>
    replace lines<br>
    echo 0 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm      #this clears your
    alarm.<br>
    echo $1 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm     #this writes your
    alarm<br>
    <br>
    with one line<br>
    sudo /usr/sbin/rtcwake --mode no -t $1<br>
    <br>
    <br>
    Note: "--mode no" not "-mode no" (the Mythtv ACPI wiki has a missing
    - character in the example /usr/sbin/rtcwake -mode no)<br>
