Automatic power on QNAP Turbo Station devices

<p>

All ARM based QNAP machines can turn on automatically when power is
applied if the device was not powered down correctly.  This is helpful
when your power goes down.  Follow the instructions below if you want to
turn automatic power on using Debian on a QNAP TS-109, TS-119, TS-209,
TS-219, TS-409 or TS-409U.

</p>

<p>

Edit the file <tt>/etc/apt/sources.list</tt> and add the following line:

</p>

<div class="code">
<pre>
deb http://people.debian.org/~tbm/orion lenny main
</pre>
</div>

<p>

Now install a new version of qcontrol:

</p>

<div class="code">
<pre>
apt-get update
apt-get install qcontrol
</pre>
</div>

<p>

Finally, turn the automatic power feature on:

</p>

<div class="code">
<pre>
qcontrol -d &amp;
qcontrol autopower on
kill %1
rm /var/run/qcontrol.sock
</pre>
</div>
