Wake from suspend doesn't because Network Manager, HAL, or some other user space tool gets confused. I just rechecked it with Fujitsu Lifebook, which has sky2 (88E8055). There many variations of this chip, and it maybe chip specific problem or ACPI/BIOS issues. If you don't enable Wake on Lan in BIOS, the driver can't do it for you. Also, check how you are shutting down. Also since the device has to restart the PHY, it could be a switch issue if you have some fancy pants switch doing intrusion detection or something, but I doubt that. Is it a clean or fast shutdown, most distributions mark network devices as down on shutdown, but if the distribution does something stupid like remove the driver module, then the driver is unable to setup Wake On Lan. The wake on lan setup is done in one place in the driver, add a printk to see if it is ever called. -- Stephen Hemminger <stephen.hemminger@xxxxxxxxxx> - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
