Folks, OpenBSD 5.4-Rel, GENERIC kernel. I'm trying to set up a file server that should be remotely controlled (broken LCD).
I need to switch it on by means of WOL functionality (supported by and activated into the BIOS). The interface is: $ dmesg | egrep bge bge0 at pci2 dev 0 function 0 "Broadcom BCM5751" rev 0x01, BCM5750 A1 (0x4001): apic 1 int 16, address 00:14:22:e1:0b:05 brgphy0 at bge0 phy 1: BCM5750 10/100/1000baseT PHY, rev. 0 When I halt the system *without* powering down it and then switch it off pressing the power button, the interface is still on (LED activity is visible) and I can wake up the system through the ARP magic packet. But if I try to power it off through "halt -p" the interface is physically powered down too (and, of course, it no more react to the WOL packets). I also tried to set "powerdown=YES" in /etc/rc.shutdown, but without luck. Any hints? Pressing the power button each time is not an option, 'cause the server location isn't easly accessible.
