Abstract
A computer includes two signal lines on which wake events can occur, but the computer's motherboard recognizes wake signals occurring on only one of these signal lines. Therefore, the computer includes a circuit that, in response a wake event on the signal line that is not recognized by the motherboard, delivers a wake signal over the signal line that is recognized by the motherboard unless prevented from delivering the signal by a disable element.
