e1000, 2.6.1[34] - WOL not working
From: Martin Volf

Hello,
with 2.6.13 and 2.6.14, after I shutdown the computer I can't wake it up with
the "MagicPacket" over the network. With 2.6.12 and 2.6.12.x it is working.
Steps to reproduce:
Boot 2.6.14, "ethtool -s eth0 wol g", press the power button, acpid runs
"/sbin/init 0", the computer poweroffs, the link LED on the switch goes off
and WOL is not working. With 2.6.12 the link remains on and WOL is working.
More mystery:
When I pull out the power cord for a while after the shutdown from 2.6.14, the
link LED on the switch goes on and WOL is working. So it looks like 2.6.13 and
.14 is in fact disabling the WOL.
