Hello developers, I'm using network-manager 0.6.4-6ubuntu7 from soon-to-be-released Ubuntu feisty. This looks like a bug in networkmanager - perhaps you can shed some light on the reason why this happens.
When I resume from hibernation with only a wired via-rhine based ethernet card plugged in, I get no IP address from dhcp. When I "deactivate network" and manually do "sudo dhclient eth0", it works immediately. Deactivating/reactivating has no effect, neither has killing and restarting all nm processes. A report on launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/102716 There's also a similar bug in openSuSE: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=254412 Here's a syslog excerpt. As you can see, running dhclient manually works fine. Apr 18 15:11:29 psyche NetworkManager: <information>^IGoing to sleep.
