Mageia and wol

[phil66]

Mageia 1
Kde 4.6.3

After using the shutdown button and confirming visually that my Pc has shutdown.
It starts up during the night around 1:00am to 3:00 am

There are no entries in the bios for wol or in the nic category
There are wol entries in software management but they are not active

In /var/logs/pm-powersave.log there is an entry "/usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/disable_wol" false: success

Could this be causing the Pc to start up ??
If so how to change this to true ???

Any suggestions on how to correct this problem ??

Surely if wake on lan is disabled in the BIOS there is nothing Mageia could be doing to to enable it? Or am I misunderstanding how linux reacts with the BIOS.

I do not know how Mageia reacts to the wol script in /usr/lib/pm-utils/disable_wol

The false indication says its not disabled

Mageia is in sdb1 and I have Ubuntu gnome on the sda1 drive

Using the same type shutdown from Ubuntu does not restart my Pc

That says something in Mageia is activating wake_on_lan and restarting my Pc

Anything I can look at to find the problem will be helpful
