I've got ACPI Auto-shutdown / wakeup sorted (I think).
Essentially the combined BE/FE machine is on all day, shuts down automatically sometime after 23:00 and comes back on at 07:00.
It occurred to me last night, what happens if I want to turn the TV on in the middle of the night? I ask becuase we're expecting a happy event in a couple of weeks!
The Mobo is capable of Wake-on-Lan, but I have no idea how to achieve this (simple ?) task.
Any advice appreciated, TIA
Edit: Found 'wakeonlan', installed it, checked the MAC address of the backend, shutdown, type wakeonlan <mac address> and it worked!
First time!
Nothing in Linux works first time!
Wow.
