have you installed any new programs or hardware or has anyone but you used the machine lately it might be a power setting that has changed for some strange reason
My 2008 Mac Pro is suddenly causing me headaches.
It´s worked perfectly before, but since yesterday it suddenly started booting every time, when I wake it up from sleep.
What has broken?

Same problem, too it to the "apple bar" and got told, "It's old"
I had the same problem with my 08 mac pro at the beginning. The issue seemed to be related to the video card (HD 2600XT). A firmware update for it (it was released a couple of months after the MP) fixed the problem in my case... You could try to find that update or install another GFX card if you are working with the 2600 at the moment.
That type of answer is totally unacceptably. You should speak to that persons boss or email Steve Jobs.
Same machine and I've never had that problem. I'm assuming you meant it (re)boots rather than simply waking from its slumber.
My problem is much more sinister, however. I lose the ability to use my optical drive if my machine goes to sleep and wake. It's like it's not there at all and I need to reboot. I've traced it back to Snow/Leopard since this wasn't a problem with Tiger.
