Is the win computer atx form?You need the program to send packets. I did it sometime ago, when I had a linux gateway and I used to wake my home debian desktop from work. Try to google for 'ether-wake', guess that's the name. I had a package for coyote linux, but it can certainly run on debian, with some effort.
