To get mine to work under fedora I had to run ethtool and turn on the 
wol option.
Also it seemed to get reset after used wol to start it up so in my 
rc.local I put
/sbin/ethtool -s eth1 wol g
/sbin/ethtool -s eth0 wol g
    
ethtool -s eth0 wol g results in a message "Cannot get current
wake-on-lan settings: Operation not supported" even though both the
motherboard and NIC do support WOL.
Hmm...
