I haven't messed with it on portable computers (which tend to have more system-specific config), but on desktops, there is usually a BIOS screen for what type of events can wake the system (PS/2 keyboard, USB device, LAN, alarm, etc.). For a USB keyboard, I have to enable the USB device option in the BIOS, and then I have to set Linux to leave the right USB controller enabled when the system goes to sleep. I have to figure out which USB controller is needed and add a line to /etc/rc.d/rc.local to echo the right one into /proc/acpi/wakeup (e.g. "echo USB3 > /proc/acpi/wakeup"). On a system that I for some reason kept plugging and unplugging the keyboard (and ending up with it in different USB ports), I used the following bit of shell code: ######################################################################## # Set USB keyboards to allow wakeup for dev in $(grep -l '^01$' /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/bInterfaceProtocol); do dir=$(cd $(echo "$dev" | sed 's!/[^/]*$!!'); pwd -P) pci=$(echo $dir | cut -d/ -f5) for pdev in $(grep "disabled *pci:$pci" /proc/acpi/wakeup | cut -d' ' -f1); do echo "$pdev" > /proc/acpi/wakeup done done ######################################################################## -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
