To clear the suspense/hibernate problem, try this (rather old one): http://lilserenity.wordpress.com/2007/10/31/fix-ubuntu-dropping-wireless-on-suspendhibernate-resume/
At least at my last two hibernates (doing hibernation to not more than 10 minutes), it did restart wlan nicely! But two other things: What about startup of the wlan0 device after normal boot? At my laptop, it only works due to having edited my /etc/rc.local: #!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local # # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other # value on error. # # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution # bits. # # By default this script does nothing. # Florian Start Wlan at boot (unblock) rfkill unblock 2 # Florian: Setup power management support for wlan0 iwconfig wlan0 power on exit 0 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/812866 Title: Wlan hardware blocked after suspend lenovo X121e To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/812866/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
