Hello,
since Kernel 3.1 I can't use wake-on-lan anymore. Before it runs out of the box. I have no idea what happened except the kernel-update.
My nic is onboard
Code:
03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 03)
The nic works with module r8169.
ethtools says
Code:
Settings for eth0:
Supported ports: [ TP MII ]
Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full
Supported pause frame use: No
Supports auto-negotiation: Yes
Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full
Advertised pause frame use: Symmetric Receive-only
Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes
Link partner advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
1000baseT/Full
Link partner advertised pause frame use: No
Link partner advertised auto-negotiation: Yes
Speed: 1000Mb/s
Duplex: Full
Port: MII
PHYAD: 0
Transceiver: internal
Auto-negotiation: on
Supports Wake-on: pumbg
Wake-on: g
Current message level: 0x00000033 (51)
drv probe ifdown ifup
Link detected: yes
I added the following line in /etc/default/halt without success:
Code:
NETDOWN=no
I made successful a check with Squeeze on another partiton. WOL works there.
Any ideas? |

There have been many WoL related changes between 3.0 and 3.1, changing and fixing behaviour for different r8169 (sub-) chipsets (there are 40+ covered by the same driver, but using different hardware). Regressions are still under discussion upstream, http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg176429.html ff. |

Yesterday I installed the latest aptosid-kernel
Code:
orinoco@womble:~$ uname -a
Linux womble 3.1-0.slh.5-aptosid-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Nov 3 20:08:31 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
But there was no progress with my issue. I did some more investigation and this output makes me wondering:
Code:
orinoco@womble:~$ cat /proc/acpi/wakeup
Device S-state Status Sysfs node
PCI0 S5 *disabled no-bus:pci0000:00
USB0 S3 *disabled pci:0000:00:12.0
USB1 S3 *disabled pci:0000:00:12.2
USB2 S3 *disabled pci:0000:00:13.0

PCE9 S4 *disabled
PCEA S4 *disabled pci:0000:00:0a.0
PCEB S4 *disabled
PCEC S4 *disabled
PS2K S5 *enabled pnp:00:09
I can't see my network device here? I would expect it here.
The PS2K entry is my keyboard. And yes, I start my computer by pressing a key on my model-m.
As far as I understand the patches are made for the network module 'drivers/net/r8169.c'. Is it possible that acpi is a cause for my problem? |

The problem with non-working wake-on-lan is still pending. Today I upgraded to kernel 3.2 (Linux jake 3.2-0.slh.1-aptosid-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 5 01:25:50 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux) with no success.
The manual said that the board is equiped with a RTL8111D chip.
Maybe somebody can confirm this behavior, to sort out a hardware-problem with my board.
Thanks in advance. |

I too have problems with WOL.
With a PC 32 also works with the latest kernerl.
With the PC only with amd 64 kernel 2.6.
Can anyone tell me if there is a solution to the problem?
On the pc amd 64 I already installed the 2.6 kernel, so that is not reinstalled.
With a new PC you can install the kernel aptosid 2.6?
Thanks for your attention.
Hello.
P.S.: nic on PC AMD 64
