One functionality the VCR depends on is lacking since: On shutdown, it should remember the time for the next recording in BIOS's ACPI settings. This is done by writing the target time to /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm in seconds since Jan 1st 1970. I have had no luck yet getting this mechanism to work on the Asrock. It worked quite well on an Intel DG965RY for about 3 years, so the software side "should" be Ok. When I set the desired time directly in BIOS, it works as expected. Has someone experienced a similar problem on an Asrock 4Core Dual VSTA and got a solution? BIOS update? Software workaround? Anything?
