Hmm, I thought WoL is a BIOS feature, and OS simply got an event. But I have no 
expertise in this area.

I do get a simply Ruby script I can issue the magic packet to that system and 
trigger resume.

Get back to the topic, the situation is the same if I wake up the system from 
power button or in the case keyboard or mouse if I enable PS2 KB/MS S3-S5 
option in BIOS.

Another interesting finding, if I enable "RING" as a wake up event in BIOS, the 
system resume successfully immediately before fully suspended.
