Using WOL and WOW

The Wake On LAN and Wake on WAN packets are sent directly from your device when the server is sleeping. Most systems require WOL and WOW support to be explicitly enabled. Check out these tutorials for help.

Linux Compatibility

Typically controlling system power is privilaged on Linux/UNIX systems. Most desktop environments therefore offer other means for applications to trigger these actions. However, there is unfortunately no standard. The remote has been implemented to work with:

  • Unity
  • KDE
  • GNOME
  • LXDE

For KDE the remote uses qdbus to org.kde.ksmserver ... for restart and shutdown.

For other DE and other actions the remote uses dbus-send to org.freedesktop.UPower ...

Support for other systems will have to be added as needed.
