Wake on LAN works great with my Lenovo M57 running Fedora 11.  It is a quad
core machine and takes between three and five seconds to be ready for a
tightvnc connection.  I use the pm-suspend command to put the M57 into
standby/sleep mode.

At first there was an issue with the M57 waking up on its own each morning
at 3am.  Turned out this was due to the 24H Anacron check-in.  Editing the
/etc/crontab file fixed that.

HTH,

Mark
