I'm also new to Linux and I have struggled with this some time. I think
there's a bug in Fedora 11 that makes the extra line in rc.local
necessary.

If I understand it well, agilles' line is supposed to add a line to
rc.local. I've added it to the end of rc.local by hand with nano:

nano /etc/rc/local
add at the end the line:
ethtool -s eth0 wol g
save the file and restart.

I also noticed that you have to wait a bit till the command is
processed after restarting. Here ethtool eth0 states that wol is d when
I do this immediately after restarting. After waiting a few seconds, it
says g.

Hope this helps.
