does something need to be modified for the sleep code from the arduino site to work with the mega2560?
http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Learning/ArduinoSleepCode
#include <avr/sleep.h>
/* Sleep Demo Serial
* -----------------
* Example code to demonstrate the sleep functions in an Arduino.
*
* use a resistor between RX and pin2. By default RX is pulled up to 5V
* therefore, we can use a sequence of Serial data forcing RX to 0, what
* will make pin2 go LOW activating INT0 external interrupt, bringing
* the MCU back to life
*
* there is also a time counter that will put the MCU to sleep after 10 secs
*
* NOTE: when coming back from POWER-DOWN mode, it takes a bit
* until the system is functional at 100%!! (typically <1sec)

*
* The 5 different modes are:
* SLEEP_MODE_IDLE -the least power savings
* SLEEP_MODE_ADC
* SLEEP_MODE_PWR_SAVE
* SLEEP_MODE_STANDBY
* SLEEP_MODE_PWR_DOWN -the most power savings
*
* For now, we want as much power savings as possible, so we
* choose the according
* sleep mode: SLEEP_MODE_PWR_DOWN

* In the function call attachInterrupt(A, B, C)
* A can be either 0 or 1 for interrupts on pin 2 or 3.

It has always worked fine with my duemilanove but doesnt want to work with the mega2560
thanks
