4. Usage

You can schedule the time and the day - such as on your smartphone alarm - that your PC will turn on. It's possible to create many personalized rules, depending on your needs. There are 3 main modes to suspend yor PC:

• off – Turn the computer off completely (isn’t officially supported by the ACPI specification, but this works with many computers anyway).
• disk - Suspend to disk. This state offers the greatest power savings. When the computer turns on, its state will be restored.
• mem - Suspend to RAM. Offers significant power savings as everything in the system is put into a low-power state, except for memory.

If you want power saving, use "off" or "disk" modes.

Gawake makes the "rtcwake" linux command easier and more pratical. See the rtcwake documentation here: https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/rtcwake.8.html
