- Dear everybody,
-
- I was wondering if I will be able to make an arrangement where I can
- make my computer turn on/off at certain times. I was looking into:
-
- Timed power, power turns on at 18.00, machine boots
- Machine does things...
- halt performed at 20.00
- Power shutdown at 20:10
-
- The weak point is of course that to boot the machine I have to press the
- "Power" button on the keyboard. Is there a way I can make the machine forget
- about the power button at power up time?
-
- This is an upgraded NeXTcube running 2.1
-
- Thanks,
