[Voyage-linux] I want to use Wake on Lan with Voyage

Hi,
I have set up an X86 pc box with voyage running from a CF card, as a
SqueezeCenter server and its working great so far.  What I want to
ultimately do is be able to turn the server on and off via the remote for
the Squeezebox (using a SqueezeCenter plugin called Server Power Control).
The Squeezebox is capable of sending a magic packet to wake up the server
remotely(something I observed on an older system).  The thing I am trying to
find out now, is does Voyage have support in the kernel for WOL?  (I presume
it needs the acpi drivers ?)  I have enabled WOL on the lan card(an add-in,
not a built in) with ethtool and turned on PCI control in the BIOS) .  Im
still working on getting Server Power Control working, but I thought I would
send this out in tandem, in case something in the kernel needs to be
modified..

Thanks
JD
