Sam Gweon, thank you for your comments. Regarding them:
"Every new device that is not supported by old kernels could be called to have an upstream bug."

This is incorrect. If a bug is reproducible in an Ubuntu (downstream)
kernel but not mainline (upstream), it's not an upstream bug.

"Please keep in mind that I did not really use any old ubuntu distros
with this computer. Since I bought this new laptop..."

If you want to maximize the speed of this bug being fixed, you would
want to follow the instructions advised to you in

Title:
  1969:10a1 [Lenovo IdeaPad Y510P] alx module problem (wakeonlan)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I am using 13.10 (saucy) on my new laptop---a Lenovo laptop (Y510P).

  It appears that the alx module that loads the network card (08:00.0
  Ethernet controller: Qualcomm Atheros QCA8171 Gigabit Ethernet (rev
  10)) might have some problem.

  The wakonlan functionality is important for me.  However, when I do

  ethtool eth0

  I do not get any encouraging information on wakeonlan.  There just
  isn't any information printed out regarding wakeonlan.

  However, when booted to the Windows 7 partition, it is shown that this network card does support wakeonlan, and wakeonlan does work when I put the computer to sleep and then send the magic packet to it.
