I know many of the windows MCE machine's remote will actually turn the computer off and on. Is there a way to do this on just any machine? I usually keep mine running but it would be nice to be able to power on the Mythbox from a remote. Turning off is not really the problem. But Turning it on remotely is the biggy to address here. snake |

I guess is that this is either done via USB power on (check your BIOS) or with special hardware. If you search the LIRC site (I think that is where I saw it...), there are instructions on how to power up via one's remote (requires hardware mod if I remember correctly). |

Some Silverstone cases come with a harness that goes in line with the ATX power supply connector. They come with a remote and reciver in the box...and with that harness they can turn the system on/off/reset I think. I dont know if their remote works with Linux though. |
