Thank you very much for answering to my report.
Please excuse my late answer. I did't had much time to test.

I tried suspend-to-ram and suspend-to-disk and never tried from "shutdown".
The included 8169 driver from kernel 2.6.32 and from 3.2bpo does not wake
up from both suspend-modes. In very rare cases (only one time with 2.6.32)
it worked from suspend-to-ram. But since then even repeating to send the
magic packet 20 times does not help.
I tried the r8168 driver with kernel 2.6.32 and 3.2bpo and wake on lan
works perfect from both suspend-modes. In very rare cases the system
does not wake up correctly from suspend-to-ram and hangs. Then it looks
like the system is off (led is off). When i press the button i hear the fans
starting and then going off. The led is blinking like in suspend-to-ram mode.
Pressing the button again the fans start again, but the screen stays black
and the system hangs completly.
