    Question WakeOnLAN almost working

    Greets, everyone. I'm very close to having WakeOnLAN working properly (using ethtool and wakeonlan). I'm able to wake the system up from sleep via wakeonlan. The only problem is that once it goes back to sleep after that, it doesn't wake up properly, but rather reboots. It will keep doing this (rebooting instead of resuming) until I properly reboot the system. Then, of course, I'm allowed to WOL one time, then no more sleep until rebooting all over again.
    Here's the output from "ifconfig eth0":
    Code:
    eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 6c:f0:49:04:03:0e

    and from "sudo ethtool eth0":
    Code:

    Any help at all with this would be greatly appreciated, as I'm tired of being torn between an always-available server and power efficiency.
