9/2/2003 Tony wrote Hi everyone,
One nettlesome problem I have is that when my laptop (running Redhat 9) wakes up after it was suspended in sleep mode, the wireless connection remains inactive and won't start up again. After wake-up, I go to the "Network Configuration" tool (Redhat menu > System Settings > Network), and click "activate" for my Wireless card (eth1), but instead of starting up my wireless card, I get the error: Determining IP information for eth1... SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device Does anyone know what the above error means? Anyone know how to set the wireless card to startup after sleep mode? What are the Linux commands that will let me start-up/shut-down network devices from the command line? Best, Tony I'm not using a Redhat on a laptop, but Hre is what I think is happening. You pcmcia kernel module is not waking up, so therefore it will never find the pc card nic. Check the scripts the others mentioned for an entry that wakes up the pcmcia module. It is sort of like going into ntsysv runlevel editor and deselecting pcmcia and then saving and rebooting. I bet you will get the same error without letting it go to sleep. If so you know you need to wake up the pcmcia drivers on wakup. Don't forget to reselect pcmcia in ntsysv runlevel editor.
