Hi,

OK, I feel stupid...

In trying again to get WOL working, I was able to set my NIC's HW / MAC
address back to what it was, 50:e5:49:36:1d:d3, by using Win7's driver
settings for it in Win7's device manager.  The upgrade to Oneiric
somehow and oddly changed it to aa:00:04:00:0a:04.

Once I changed the HW / MAC address back to the original address and
rebooted into Oneiric, WOL started working again.

Then I checked my WOL client -- an iPhone app called iNet Pro -- and I
realized that I had never changed it to wake aa:00:04:00:0a:04 and it
was still set to wake 50:e5:49:36:1d:d3.

SO... probably a false alarm here. :)  I'll close this bug if I am able;
otherwise I leave it for the proper admin to do so.

Thanks,
Doug
