Yeah; under ACPI, PCI does not act like it does everywhere else. Nor does wakeup in general. After sending patches to fix that for a couple years now, I'm well past being tired of doing that. I suggest it's overdue for the ACPI team to get this part of their act together. That is: either start merging those patches, possibly with updates to handle broken hardware better; or rewrite them; ... or just say explicitly the message I've been receiving: "Linux ACPI will never support wakeup the way the rest of Linux can and does". (And the "why" should be something reasonable.) -- 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
