Ah, I hadn't known about rtcwake. I don't know of a tutorial to do what
you want, but it doesn't seem that complicated. Basically, you
configure the machine to suspend, and set up a hook that sets a wakeup
time using rtcwake, and then another hook that calls a script on wakeup
to hibernate the machine. It would be nice, I suppose, if there was a
standard, documented way of doing this.
