Hi,

Seems it's possible since kernel 2.6.x but from my reading, a lot of people have trouble with it. I believe the idea is that if you can setup a key/combination to operate a suspend from a keyboard, then somehow you would hope to map that command to the remote.

For keyboard, mouse, serial port it is trivial via /proc/acpi/wakeup. But for our case we should have a dvb (pci) card that allow to keep the remote device active when we shut down the computer and to send a wakeup even. So I fear it is card specific and even could need some driver code to activate this feature.
