By the way, I noticed a problem when the laptop is put to sleep by closing lid:
wake-on-lan still works, but as soon as the laptop's awake, pbbuttonsd sleeps
it again. Combined with the fact that a closed iBook G4 not sleeping shutdowns
by itself, it would be nice if sungem could disable wol when suspending and the
lid is closed - if such info is available.
Or maybe such a thing should be done in the pbbuttonsd scripts by calling
ethtool?
