Tip for resuming from suspend via learning remote
I specifically bought an An8 ultra because in the bios there is an option to enable wake by USB (and it has a passively cooled northbridge). Well, its a big fat lie. Spent two hours trying to get my MCE reciever to wake the new Sage client and nothing doing. Quite a frustrating time. Anyway, when I gave up on getting USB to wake the box up, I started looking for other methods. This mobo and many others (I discovered three of my other boxes also have this option) have a feature to wake via keyboard or mouse buttons. Luckily I have a couple of those Harmony remotes (which I will never buy another of, but thats another story) which is a learning remote and an IR keyboard. Leaned the code for right mouse button and set that to wake my box up in the bios. Works like a charm. I just wanted to post in case anyone was going to have a frustrating afternoon like I did.
