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...
