ACPI Support
Submitted by planetmn on July 14, 2006 - 2:45pm
Is ACPI support included in MythDora? I am looking at the tutorial located at http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/ACPI_Wakeup to enable the system to sleep and wakeup to record a show. When I perform the command:
powersave -S
I receive the error:
bash: powersave: command not found
Has anybody enabled ACPI on their box?
Also, is there anyway to get the system to change the channel without having to hit the OK/enter button? If I use Channel up and down on my PVR-150 remote, it waits to change the channel until I hit the OK button, which is kind of annoying.
Thanks,
dave

ACPI has been turned off in
ACPI has been turned off in MythDora. To turn it on again do
# chkconfig acpid on
# service acpid start
As for the channel changing option, yes there is that option. It's in the frontend setup. It should be a checkbox that says Change channels immediatly.

Re: ACPI has been turned off in
I can't seem to find powersave on MythDora 3.
Anyhow I am having a problem with ACPI. I can echo a date / time to alarm ok, but when I reboot, I see this "2006-00-00 10:58:00". I thought it was that problem with halt on the above url, but that didn't seem to help. I even tried to uncomment the whole set hardware clock line and that didn't help either.
I have a Biost MC7ND motherboard (nforce 2 / Award bios). Any other ideas?
