 trouble% cd sys/dev/

 age/if_age.c
 jme/if_jme.c
 re/if_re.c
 stge/if_stge.c
 vr/if_vr.c
 
 So 5 drivers right now support WOL.  Jack said em had support a while 
 back but he seems to have not hooked it up.

Nice! I'll update the wiki page accordingly.

What's with if_sis? Isn't it in yet because my patch only
supports the NatSemi variant? (I have no idea whether the
other variants work alike or not.)

startup options

2008-08-15 Thread Chuck Robey
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

I was wondering if it was possible, with a machine that has about 2 year old
dual AMD64 processors and an up-to-date AMI BIOS, to get the machine to be able
to start up from a power shutdown, after some sort of a network signal?

If it might be possible, could you maybe put me onto the path of whatever info
there might be on that subject?

Wake on LAN is I believe a work in progress.

its not an area I have much knowledge of though so other might be able
to help more.

That page pretty much summarises the state of affairs, yes.

Basically, you need a VIA-based ethernet card card (vr driver)
and -CURRENT, or a vr card with 7.0 and patches from here:
http://www.stsp.name/wol/FreeBSD-8-CURRENT-wol-backported-to-7.0/
