Ron,
Can't cite URLs for threads, but there was a bug with USB wakeup which
was supposed to be fixed, IIRC, in kernels at or after 2.6.24. I have
had other things to watch ;-) so I haven't pursued it recently myself.
I have a Micro$oft Media Center remote and receiver which do
everything else I want except wake from suspend/hibernate, so I am
looking forward to getting that going. OTOH, since I have problems
with getting suspend to work on my hardware, wakeup has become a
secondary issue. Someday I hope to get back to these "projects", too.
On top of everything else, having been convinced to get off the
Fedora Core merry-go-round and switch to CentOS, I find that kmdls and
support for TuxOnIce (my preferred suspend/hibernate solution) tend to
be overlooked and only built on request, so I find myself seriously
looking at building my own RPM repository to maintain
built-from-sources kernels and kmdls to support CentOS 5.1 with
nvidia-graphics, alsa, ivtv, lirc, and suspend2/tuxonice kmdl and
kernel modifications supported.
Craig.
