ACPI_Wakeup page on Wiki is missing

Post by sebmyth »

Unless it's just me an attempt to load the ACPI_Wakeup page on the Wiki results in a blank page. Can someone who is more knowledgeable look at it please?
I'm keen to try and get this working: after 15 years of using MythTV with a 24/7 backend running the pending sharp rise in electricity costs here in the UK is forcing a rethink!

Do you mean this page?

Works for me.

Just me then; thanks for looking. It's odd: I've tried two different browsers and two other devices and get a blank page every time. I always get a 304 return code.

That page is also blank when accessed.

Looks like it's a logged in, OK, logged out blank problem.

Tricky. I cannot login because I don't have a login for the Wiki. And I cannot create a login because it says I'm not permitted to do so.

Looks like I'm doomed never to read the page; unless some kind person can find out why non members can't see it and fix it.

Pity really, I can't at the moment get the idle shutdown to work; it keeps saying the setting the wakeup time script failed with no explanation. That page would have been very useful.

I've had a word with a dev so hopefully he can do some magic to fix it.

Unfortunately new registrations are blocked due to spammers defacing the wiki.

You might want to go on #mythtv irc channel and ask for the wiki registration to be re-enabled at a time you're available.

I can understand why before allowing full control of a wiki a login might be required, but just to read a page?

Until it is fixed, see if this helps as a way to view the page. Scroll down past the comparison view, and hopefully the page is shown.

I just made a couple of trivial changes to the page to see if that made a difference. I can now view the page OK (I couldn't before.)

No idea why it didn't work, or if it will for others. I did re-test without being logged in.

Thank you, it now works beautifully.

If only my Mythtv system did as well....

Got it working eventually. Since I cannot log in to the Wiki and it seems silly to register simply to edit one page I wonder if someone would be kind enough to add my contribution to the User Experience:

Done. Formatting on the wiki doesn't look right as you're not a user on the wiki, but at least the info is there.
