It seems that the problem is that shutting down the NIC during shutdown disables WOL.

If I shutdown using "poweroff -f", WOL works fine. (Warning: poweroff -f doesn't go through the normal shutdown procedure, and might cause data loss)

Running 2.6.24 from Debian. Can someone double-check using 2.6.22 or 2.6.24 from Ubuntu?
