RE: [Bluez-users] M$FT optical desktop for Bluetooth now works wi

There is one caveat though, when a system goes into suspend it generally
suspends the USB bus which means you can no longer exit suspend on
keyboard/mouse input. I'm not sure if there is a way for a USB
peripheral to override this and wakeup the USB bus on a keyboard/mouse
event. If instead a CF or PCMCIA BT card is used you might be able to
take advantage of a network wakeup signal but to my knowledge there are
no wireless "wake on lan" cards.

Is anyone aware of a means to wake a cpu from a wireless peripheral?
