So about a year on, I'm having a similar issue.

Centos 4.4 dual boot with Xp on a Asus An8-SLI Premium
eth0: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ethernet Controller
(rev 13)

1. I have been using my old machine W2k/Centos with WOL for years
conclusion: Magic Packets are working correctly

2. If I shutdown from XP, WOL works (on the Marvell eth)
conclusion: Magic Packets are working, BIOS settings are correct, XP
leaves eth0 in the correct state


Default driver is sk98lin (v 6 driver if I recall correctly) but this
does not
support ethtool, so I switched to the skge driver. This does
respond to ethtool
and wol flag was set to d. I set it to g, shutdown -h the machine
and WOL
doesn't work. It also appears to disable the interface completely
as XP then
reports the cable is disconnected. A hard power off/on is needed
to resolve this.
Setting the flag to 'g' then a reboot, ethtool says the wol flag is
back to 'd'.

I tried using the later v8 of sk98lin, which needed a kernel rebuild,
but my initial
tests seemed to have the same results - I then ran out of test time
(too late at night)

I'm not on my machine atm, but the kernel and drivers are the default
versions
as in RH 4u4, Centos 4.4

so tried the modules sk98lin, skge from the default install
Both appear to work as nic drivers, but both appear to
kill the card on shutdown - ie the orange link light goes off.

When XP shuts down, the orange link light stays on and
the machine will WOL

i can't ifup eth0, if I modprobe sky2
and modprobe -r skge/sk98lin


has anyone got wol working with sk drivers?
