I'm not clear what you're asking for here. Do you think that the Shut Down dialog, for example, should have an option for starting up the computer again at a specified time?
Or is this more of a schedule thing, providing settings to (for example) start up the computer every weekday at 8:55 a.m.? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-session in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987420 Title: allow to set restart/resume time on shutdown/suspend Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Linux provides a simple way to schedule an restart event, for example: rtcwake -m on -s <seconds-to-sleep> This command avoids that rtcwake does any switching into another power state (mode -m stays on). The power state is thus handled by the regular installed powermanagment tools, which is more stable especially on resume. Just schedule the wake event, then do the regular shutdown/suspend. Later, the real time clock will trigger the scheduled power event and the machine comes back up.
