    WOL issue following upgrade to 10.10

    Hi,

    Since I have upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10, my computer wont boot using WOL anymore. Ive been booting this comp for years and many ubuntu distro using WOL but this time it ain't working anymore and i'm stuck.

    I followed this thread without succcess:
    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=234588&page=3

    Here's what I can confirm:

    1) My BIOS is configured ok (worked before and I doubled-check)
    2) NIC interface LED is light up when PC is shutdown
    3) My NIC card (eth0) does support WOL and seems to be well configure using the script provided in the thread:

    sudo ethtool eth0
    ...
    Supports Wake-on: pg
    Wake-on: g
    ...

    4) I doubled-check with Wireshark, I do get the magic-packet has I used to.


    Recap:
    - This worked well before 10.10
    - The only config I had while using 10.04 was the following line in my rc.local file: ethtool -s eth0 wol g
    - Since 10.10 and many trys to fix this, i'm stuck.

    Thx for your help.
    Any HINT could be helpfull.
