rtcwake on Linux Mint 9 on fit-PC2

Post by redpost »

Anyone else have success using rtcwake on the fit-PC2? Before sleeping, the PC2 draws about .6 amps at 12V. We are able to put the PC2 to sleep with rtcwake, but when it's scheduled to boot back up, it does increase power usage (to .4 amps) but the screen doesn't come on and the PC2 is nonresponsive.

Is this a hardware or software issue? Anyone have insight into RTC on the PC2?

I found this in the fit-PC wiki (here http://www.fit-pc.com/wiki/index.php?ti ... buntu_9.10):
Known issues
Suspend and Hibernate functions do not work properly and disabled in kernel. Using these functions is equal to Lock Screen.
Does this mean it's a hardware issue? Does suspend/sleep work in Windows?

Hello Redpost

This is a kernel/driver issue. Suspend/resume works fine under Windows 7

Is this fixed on the fit-PC3 and Intense PC in Linux?
