PME Event Wake Up
Allows the system to be awakened from an ACPI sleep state by a wake-up signal from a PCI or
PCIe device. Note: To use this function, you need an ATX power supply providing at least 1A on
the 5VSB lead. (Default: Enabled)

Power On by Ring
Allows the system to be awakened from an ACPI sleep state by a wake-up signal from a modem
that supports wake-up function. (Default: Enabled)



Power On by Ring is an interesting option, maybe a VOIP call to a modem would wake the PC however for me would probably need 1) 
analogue modem, 2) VOIP interconnect device to connect Modem to LAN. 3) Phone call to the relevant extension.  Might be seen as 
excessive way to turn on a PC.  Hmmm.  I wonder if asterisk will receive a extension number and turn it into a WOL command?  A quick 
google did not turn up anything like this.


> also, are the multimedia keys useful?

The Mute and Volume keys work by default in myth and also VLC.  The other multimedia keys did nothing that I can tell with a brief 
run around.  While I suppose they could be hooked in somehow the keyboard keys all seemed to work so the only missing functionality 
I can see is the Power. (the USB Keyboard / trackball issue above seems a non issue)
