Gratitude .
Caseless pc hanging on the side of the wall from my desk. starting that thing was a problem =}
Strange fact is that Windows had this option on default for usb devices
Your solution is the reason i won’t go back to Windows.
I just love the Linux community.

Awesome! I concur with JR it works fine on 10.04 LL (64 bit in my case). I really appreciate the effort you took to post this.

Thank you very much! Great How-to and still valid for Ubuntu Lucid Lynx (10.04)

@sudha – Do you have a PS2 keyboard or a USB one? I’m assuming USB as you have no PS2K entries? Your wakeup file doesn’t seem to have a USB0 device which I assume all machines would.
If you sleep your machine does your mouse wakeup the machine when a button is clicked? My process at this point was just to test until I found the right device.
Good luck.
