Aw: Re: Re: Edubuntu 12.04 LTSP - Shutdown and wake on LAN problems with Zotac ZBox

Yes i also tried to change the acpi boot options, but this doesn't work for me.

But it looks like i have found a solution for my WOL problem now! :)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/914439

After installing this Realtek driver package in the LTSP chroot, WOL now works fine here on the Zotac box
and i can still use "poweroff -fp" for the LTSP Clients!

I will test it in our school tomorrow, but it looks very good. :)

Hi Matt,

thank you very much for your reply.

We are using the /etc/init/ltsp-shutdown.conf from an older Edubuntu version and this file tells our LTSP Clients to use "poweroff -fp", so 
the ZBox Nano shuts down fine here. (This file was removed in Edubuntu 12.04, but it fixes the shutdown problem.)
But using the "poweroff -fp" way to shutdown the clients seems to create a new problem: -> WOL don't work.
So either i must get the ZBoxes to shutdown the "normal way" (using shutdown -h now instead of poweroff -fp) or i must find a solution that
the network interface keeps online when using the "poweroff -fp" method.
 
Ah, yes. I understand. I had the shutdown problem for quite some time and I never came across ltsp-shutdown.conf from earlier versions. That may have been an easier fix for me perhaps. Don't know.

Sorry. I've created a bit of a red herring here. I can't help you but I hope someone else can.

Oh by the way... I take it you've explored the acpi boot options? I tried all this for ages, which worked for some people (but not for our workstations).
