Thanks for looking into this Christopher - this issue seems to be fixed, but I can't even enable wake-on-lan now - possibly a separate bug.

Problem is that when I start up the computer it doesn't work - unplugging and replugging fixes it. A few days ago I tracked this down to the /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/disable_wol script which runs: ethtool -s eth0 wol g # --> networking broken I've tried the vendor's GPL driver from http://www.asix.com.tw/download.php?sub=driverdetail&PItemID=86 and it works - wol doesn't break it. I've since discovered that a couple of fixes for the asix driver have been merged from the vendor and are now in linux 3.2-rc4: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=history;f=drivers/net/usb/asix.c;h=e6fed4d4cb77f70c8c6d62af16d53a57ed31c99c;hb=HEAD. The fix for the wol issue seems to be in this commit http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=4ad1438f025ed8d1e4e95a796ca7f0ad5a22c378. I think we should try to get these asix patches into the stable kernel so that this issue is fixed for other Oneiric users. I'm going to try to test that it fixes my issue by compiling 3.0.0-13.22 with the asix.c from 3.2-rc4. --- AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
