Package: initscripts Version: 2.85-22 Severity: wishlist When shutting down the system /etc/init.d/halt will /sbin/halt the system and request all the network interfaces to be shut down via the "-i" option. It seems that some (some/all/few? I do not know, I've run into this on my systems armed with e100 driven network cards, but have not been able to track this down to the e100 driver) network drivers do disable wake on LAN when shutting down without paying attention to the fact that WOL has explicitly being enabled.
When halt-ing withouth -i the network cards keep their WOL status. I therefore suggest making -i optional similiar to the HALT setting in /etc/default/halt, probably defaulting to -i enabled.
