[mythtv-users] Remote to turn *on* mythtv?

Problem: I can't get my remote to wake up my system. I want to be able to wake from the suspend-to-disk state, which I *think* is S4 (important that I have this right -- see below)
Earlier in this thread Leighton reported that he was using the Microsoft MCE USB remote to wake his system from the suspend-to-RAM state.
I have an Asus M2NPV-VM motherboard based system which I am still configuring and I have a (newly purchased) Microsoft MCE USB remote attached.
I have all the mobo jumpers repositioned to supply standby power to the keyboard and the backpanel USB ports, where I have the MCE receiver attached.
I *can* wake my system up with the keyboard I'm using while I set it up, but eventually it has to go ;-).
I have turned on the BIOS setting for allowing/enabling PCI events to wake the system up.
I have tried doing the following before suspending to disk:
# echo USB0 > /proc/acpi/wakeup
# echo USB2 > /proc/acpi/wakeup
# echo PS2K > /proc/acpi/wakeup
and then suspending with (IIRC):
# echo disk > /sys/power/state
Since I plan to use Suspend2 (now called TuxOnIce! I think) and already have in installed, I tried that, too, after the three echoes to /proc/acpi/wakeup with:
hibernate
I've tried various keys on the remote and can see the receiver feedback LED respond, but the system stays off until I use the keyboard or front panel power switch.
After performing the three echoes to /proc/acpi/wakeup, I get the following with this command:
# cat /proc/acpi/wakeup | grep enabled
PS2M 4 enabled
PS2K 4 enabled
USB0 4 enabled
USB2 4 enabled
I interpret this to mean the USB ports, keyboard and mouse are all enabled to wake the system from the S4 state.
Have I left any stones unturned or is this mobo doomed to not wake from S4 via this IR receiver?
Craig.
