Hello,
I used a long time an automation tool called TimeComX made by Bitdreamers to bring my Computer in Sleep mode and back again with an alarm sound after a certain amount of time.
You can find it here:

Unfortunately its only available for Windows and I changed to Linux recently.
Does anybody know a good alternative?
Cheers,
Dan
