Linux Wake On Keyboard

redshift· March 27, 2010· [tech]

Quick tip - Not all Linux-based operating systems wake from suspend mode when you use your keyboard. To enable that feature, do this:

echo USB0 > /proc/acpi/wakeup

You can add that line to /etc/rc.d/rc.local (on Fedora, similar elsewhere) to make sure the setting is enabled on startup.
