Bug#373593: kernel: e1000 wake on lan (wol) does not work after 2.6.12
Package: kernel
Severity: normal
Hello,
when upgrading from
linux-image-2.6.12-1-686_2.6.12-10_i386.deb
to any of
- linux-image-2.6.14-2-686_2.6.14-7_i386.deb
- linux-image-2.6.15-1-686_2.6.15-8_i386.deb
- linux-image-2.6.16-2-686_2.6.16-14_i386.deb
- vanilla 2.6.15
wake on lan (wol) doesn't work any more with my e1000 card
(Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop Adapter with the e1000 driver).
After shutting down linux, the link led is off now (nic and switch), and
wol is not possible. wol is possible and working fine after starting and
shutting down Windows 2000, or Linux kernel 2.6.12, where link led stays on
on both nic and switch.
I found a similar issue here with the sk98lin driver:

but ethtool is working for me with e1000.
