next power up time, scheduled startup?, pmacpow does not work, nvram-wakeup?
Hello!
I just ran vdr (video disk recorder) on my good old beige G3 without a
problem :-)
Now I have the next problem: How can I switch on the G3 at a given
time?
My config:
MacOS 9.1 which starts BootX that start linux. (had big trouble with
quiks)
First I tried pmacpow but this does not work at all.
ftp://ppc.linux.or.jp/pub/users/toe/pmacpow-tool/
Than I tried to setup scheduled startup within MacOS ... this worked
for 2 or 3 starts but after that the G3 does not automatically starts
up anymore. I need to setup scheduled startup from within linux to make
it possible for vdr to switch on the G3 at a given time and record a
TV-show to harddisk. Of course shutdown after recording is no problem
;-)
As always "I am not a programer so I can not fix this by my self ....
:-("
Maybe someone can give me a hint why pmacpow does not work or maybe it
is better to support http://sourceforge.net/projects/nvram-wakeup on
PPC.
Bye, thanks,
Christoph
