My TV has an RS-323 port that I use to control it over a serial cable.

Are you asking how to make the the remote wake up the computer? That's done
typically by setting up Wake on USB. Or are you asking how to turn on the
TV upon resume? A script in sleep.d is how I do that; they get executed on
resume too, with case statements to distinguish between sleep and resume.

In fact, you could put the commands to turn off the TV in the same script
in the sleep section, and have the power button on your remote just call
the suspend command. Then its consistent and symmetrical.
