Timed Startup
Hey everyone,
So I'm pretty new to Ubuntu. What I want to do is a timed startup.
Right now, I'm using a program called Auto Power on and Shut down on Windows. It let's me set times for the computer to shutdown, power on, hibernate, sleep, and etc.
Is there any program or any script you can write for Ubuntu that lets you do this? I need something like:
Tell computer to turn off at 10am.
*run programs*
Tell computer to (does Linux have hibernate?) something that isn't shutdown but looks like it's shutdown at 5pm. I use hibernate in Windows.
Thanks guys!

Hello and Welcome!

I've not used this before, but a little Google work gave me something that might help you.
