Description:

This is a (small) program that can read and write the WakeUp time in
the BIOS (via /dev/nvram on kernels >= 2.4.6 or via direct I/O). On
this WakeUp time the computer will be powered on automatically from
the soft-off state.

---- WARNING: --------------------------------------------------------
This program writes into the NVRAM (used by BIOS to store the CMOS
settings). This is DANGEROUS. Do it at your own risk. Neither the
author of this program (nvram-wakeup) nor anyone else can be made
responsible to any damage made by this program in any way. (The worst
case happened to me is that on reboot the BIOS noticed the illegal
contents of the nvram and set everything to default values. But this
doesn't mean that you can't destroy even your whole computer.) YOU HAVE
BEEN WARNED.
