Ubuntu Networking :: Setup Wake-on-lan With A Laptop?
Jun 8, 2010
I tried to follow this guide on how to setup wake-on-lan with a laptop, but instead of

Auto-negotiation: on
Supports Wake-on: g
Wake-on: g

I got this:

I must confess I didn't see any setting in the BIOS that directly referred to WoL, but I enabled something and hoped it should be right. Is this the problem? Is there any way to check if the hardware supports WoL other than looking through the BIOS?

I have just installed ubuntu server 10.04 LTS on a laptop, and I would like to control it remotely.When I manually turn on the computer I can successfully use SSH commands to turn it off. But when I wake on lan turn it on, it doesn't power off. It hangs on a black screen where the fan and the hard drive seem to be off, but the ethernet light is on and so are all the computer lights.

All I want to do is to be able to shut the lid on my laptop, have it go into suspend like it already does, but upon opening it again, successfully start up again. It'll sleep just fine, but if you close the lid and try to open it again later, the lights will indicate it is starting up, but the screen won't initialize, and I am left with a blank, black screen.I've tried a line of code to enter into my menu.lst file, and it seemed like it should work, but it borked my computer and I had to manually reinstate the line of code it had before.

I have an Acer 1551 4755, with Debian Squeeze. Normally my Debian Squeeze installations and suspending work fine on my other 2 laptops. For some reason this one is troubled. I can put into sleep with "pm-suspend" or "pm-hibernate" but the thing is that my laptop never wakes up. I endup restarting.
here is the hardware and module list

My laptop won't wake from sleep. I hit the powerbutton and it'll blink a few more times, turn green and the keys will light up but the screen stays black.
Running sony vaio s with windows 7 and 11.4 duelboot. I really need it to be able to suspend and wake because I'll be taking it to college in the fall.

goes to sleep just fine but won't wake up... in Windows, I see that it only supports Sleep Mode S3, which it calls hybrid sleep. I know that the video driver is the key to getting it working properly in Windows, I can get the exact name of the driver if needed but I do know it is nVidia.

I've just a had laptop meltdown which resulted in the acquisition of a replacement (HP635) sporting a realtek wireless NIC. Found the drivers and installed them and all is well. HOWEVER, the card is not activated on wake from sleep mode. This is kind of astounding to me. Every crappy windows version that I've used can handle this situation. Many searches, however have failed to yield any help. After every resume from sleep mode I have to run ifup to start wlan0. Surely this is not the only way it can be? I have to assume that I'm not getting something simple, and someone here can point out my failing. or if you can just sympathize. running 11.4 here using the realtek 8192 driver set to start at boot time. Though none of the other settings have had any effect on this problem.

I have successfully created an access point on my Laptop via Madwifi drivers. A second laptop can successfully associate with the created AP. But ping is not possible from both sides.
AP on the first Laptop:
ifconfig ath0 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.0.0.255 up
Second Laptop:
ifconfig ath1 10.0.0.50 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add default gw 10.0.0.1
Association works, but ping command is not possible from both sides:
ping 10.0.0.50
ping 10.0.0.1
What could be the problem?

I am in the process of reviving a legacy laptop using Vector Linux 6.0. Once past the x window issues associated with these old machines (and the SIS 630 chipset in general) the setup worked very well.
However, I have been unable to get the wired network working. Vector linux suggests eth0 is connected but I have no internet access in browsers or for slapt-get etc. The following is the process I have gone through so far (I am a convert to linux as of last month and networking isnt my forte so go easy!).
lspci output:
Code:

have Unix and Windows experience. So will need some hand-holding.Need help getting my wireless network to work on my newly installed Oracle Linux on Dell laptop.Not sure what wireless card is installed, or it's mac address (though I can boot into windows and get that info I don't want to - it'll be kind of a let down if I can't fix it all thru Linux).Install has detected a Broadcom wired card, but not the wireless. Funny thing is that it detected the Bluetooth

Trying to set up a LAN with an FC14 laptop, FC15 PC and a Windows machine running XP. I have SAMBA installed on both FC machines, but neither of them can see shares on each other or the XP machine. I can ping between all of them. The Windows machine sees all of the SAMBA shares.
When I attempt to Connect to Server under Places on the FC15 PC, I do not have a Windows share option to choose from as I do on the laptop, suggesting smbclient isn't configured correctly on that machine. SMB, NMB and WINBIND are installed and activated on startup on both FC machines. Although I have the Windows share option on the FC14 laptop, it will only connect with the IP address.
Firewalls and SELinux on both machines are disabled. Here are some configuration details:
rpm -qa | grep samba
samba-3.5.8-68.fc15.1.x86_64
samba-winbind-3.5.8-68.fc15.1.x86_64
samba-swat-3.5.8-68.fc15.1.x86_64
system-config-samba-docs-1.0.9-2.fc15.noarch

This isn't stricly an Ubuntu question, but it is in the cause of an Ubuntu-powered home server Essentially: does wake-on-lan work if the computer is Shut Down (ie to all intents and purposes 'off' except for the hardware switch on the back), assuming that the motherboard and network interface (which in my case are one and the same) support wake-on-lan?
Also, if wake-on-lan is turned on, will this mean power going to anything other than the network interface (e.g. will PSU, CPU, case fans still be on?)Finally, will all of this work on Ubuntu 10.10 (assuming that the computer components are compatible)?
EDIT: Just to be clear, the Ubuntu system will be receiving the wake-on-lan 'call' (from a Squeezebox, though from my very limited knowledge of this stuff I don't think the source matters)

Im trying to remote power on my debian machine with gnome with the wake on lan function. I enabled it on my mainboard and was configuring my ethtool. There i see:
root@lappy:~# ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
Supports Wake-on: g
Wake-on: d
Link detected: yes
and after this command ethtool -s eth0 wol g i get this:
root@lappy:~# ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
Supports Wake-on: g
Wake-on: g
Link detected: yes
So i enabled it on software and hardware. Now im trying to sent the magic packets with a windows tool "wake on lan" I see that the package has been sent but the pc wont turn on. So when i check the ethtool settings again i see that it turned to:
Wake-on: d

I been a windows guy forever, and wanted to make the switch. Anyways, I am hoping to do a wireless wake-on-lan from a windows box. I have an older laptop that has a dead screen and I am trying to use it as a server. So, I want to be able to VNC the linux box from my vista machine. I think that's going to be straight forward. But, the linux machine doesn't have a builtin wireless card, so I am using a USB wireless deal. If I let the laptop hibernate/sleep after being idle, can I wake from my vista box over my network?

I suppose this was caused by an update, I don't know. I just know that my wireless card is no longer seen by my Ubuntu 8.1. Maybe I should be in the newbie area. Isn't there a way I can wake it up with modprobe?

I can't get wake up on lan (wol) to work on my network card.The strange thing is that before I had it working with the exact same hardware. But I was on Centos 5.4 then. Now I am on Centos 5.5.Am I correct in concluding that the sky2 driver does not support wake up on lan?

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 server as a guest on a Windows 7 host using VirtualBox. I've set the VirtualBox configuration to use a Bridged network connection so that I can access the internet through the Ubuntu guest and to access the Ubuntu apache server through my Windows host.This is all running on my laptop which connects to various routers using dhcp (some ip addresses start with 198. while others start with 10.) What I need is a single static ip address (or hostname/url) to setup my cms (drupal).how I can accomplish this given the varying routers the laptop connects to?

I've got a long road trip day after tomorrow, and thankfully, I'm not driving. I own 3 working laptops which I'm bringing with me, along with 2 brothers who enjoy starcraft (1). I've never setup a LAN before, how would I do it? My laptop's dual booting slack and lucid, the other two are vista/karmic and standalone 7. All 3 have cards capable of wireless G and Ethernet ports.

setup the correct mode for my laptop-video card-monitor
Video card - ATI mobility Radeon X1600
External Monitor - Belinea b.display 2 22"
Right now the external monitor is working, but sometimes it goes black for 2-3 seconds and then works again. This happens sometimes 5 times in a row, sometimes once, sometimes none. Other issue, when I install any new kernel it doesn't work. I get weird picture on monitor.

I am upgrading my old 40G hard drive to a new 160G one and want to know the best way to set it for use with my system. I currently have a Windows partition which I want to keep & reinstate onto the new drive. Then I want to have another 3 partitions for different distros.
What should I do as a first step when I put the drive in boot off a live CD. I am assuming that I will need to do. If I do a, # grub-install, will this then format the MBR and then create a small partition for /boot. Following that, do I just restore the Windows partition immediately after the /boot partition, and then create new partitions for the distros accordingly.
I would also like to create a seperate swap partition and then install F10. Is there an option in Anaconda to not use LVM (can't remember).

Fresh installation of Fedora 14 x86-64 on Lenovo T510. I'm trying to setup graphical remote connection to this laptop via VNC. I installed vnc-server package and altered /etc/sysconfig/vncservers accordingly:
Code:
VNCSERVERS="2:awajda"
VNCSERVERARGS[2]="-geometry 800x600 -nolisten tcp -localhost"
I found Remote Desktop which opens vino-preferences and ticked the check boxes there. I started vnc-server and then I tried to connect to it from the same local host using vncviewer. I got no errors and the window with correct resolution came up. The problem is - that window is black and empty. I tried looking into Fedora docs but I haven't found anything useful there. I tried google and I found about 487693746874363 solutions and different ways of installing and configuring VNC server. I tried a few - none helped.
I wonder if there is a decent and consistent documentation about how to make remote desktop working in Fedora without having a real pain in the ass trying out those gazillion tweaks and tricks from various forums and blogs? After all Fedora 14 comes with that Remove Desktop thing available out of the box. Is it a real working thing or just a marketing Should I uninstall all the preinstalled VNC stuff and follow one of those painful instructions found on the internet from A to Z praying for it to eventually start working after all the magic is done and hours or days are wasted?

What is a good MTA (e.g. Postfix or something else) setup for a home computer behind a NAT, or a laptop that is not always online? I've read a lot of Postfix tutorials on how to set it up this way or that, but they are usually geared towards computers that are servers ie they
have a static IP
have a domain name
are always connected to the same network
My requirements are, I guess: Ability to redirect mail for local users to another server of my choosing. No listening for incoming SMTP connections - outgoing only Ability to route outgoing mail via an external SMTP server with authentication (and perhaps encryption) If not Postfix, I need an MTA which can queue up mails in case it temporarily has no internet connection.
