Don't know which one is funnier:
- a long time subscriber calling Linus: "Linux",
- or expecting Linus himself to help you fix this problem.

If you want help from forum members I suggest posting what you've tried so far.

To sum it up, your PC will not boot by pressing the power button / shorting the front panel power pins.
But it will turn on if you:
1) Turn the PSU OFF and then ON (using the power switch on the back of the PSU).
2) Clear the CMOS (by shorting the appropriate pins on your mobo)
3) Jump start the PSU while it is connected the mobo (by shorting the PS-ON Signal pin (16) to GND)

If that is the case, your mobo is faulty and needs to repaired or replaced.
If you can't afford to replace the motherboard right now you could hack temprorary solution till you can afford to replace it:
- connect the power button on your case to the CMOS reset pins
- connect the reset button on your case to PS-ON and GND
When you want to turn on your PC you press the power button shortly, and after that you press reset button shortly.
But... this means you'd always be booting with your BIOS reset to defaults (clock, ram profiles, bootup order... all the settings would be reset).
Also you'd need to strip the isolation a little bit on the 24 pin ATX cable to hook up the PS-ON and GND to a button (in my example the reset button), and then obviously add some electrical tape to make it safer, anyhow that 24 pin atx cable isolation would forever be altered.
