My laptop has the fxp chipset onboard (a Fujitsu E6575) appears to work flawlessly with wake-on-lan enabled in the bios. I might add as an aside that FreeBSD running on the Fujitsu E series is very sweet at this point. APM, in particular suspend/unsuspend work perfectly as does DVD and sound support. Only the included modem doesn't appear to work. I should also comment that XFree86-3 doesn't support the display where XFree86-4.1 does.
