I have a PowerMac G5 2.0Ghz Dual Processor system that I m using with the newer slim Apple Keyboard and Apple Optical mouse. When I try to "wake" the G5 from sleep with either the mouse or keyboard, it wakes up, and simply goes back into sleep mode, however, if I "wake" the G5 from the power button it remains awake.

Any idea what is causing this problem?

Thanks! :apple:

Try with other keyboard and mouse. If it will not help, try PMU and PRAM reset.
Do you running 10.5 or 10.4?

G5 won't wake from sleep when using keyboard or mouse

Yes, I am running 10.5 with all the updates.
