Ok, so you needed to add tg3 to the list of modules to unload.
If you still need this on a recent kernel (>=2.6.18), you should report
this on linux-kernel.

In the latest whitelist versions, the D620 is reported with VBE_SAVE=yes and
VBE_POST=yes, so adding VBE_POST to the config might be safer, but i do not
have this machine to test it.

Again, if it still happens with the latest kernel, a report on linux-kernel
would be a good idea.

Yes, there was a suspend/resume bug in tg3 (IIRC it did not report that the
cable was plugged in, but "ifconfig eth0 down; ifconfig eth0 up" fixed that),
but i think it is fixed in recent kernels.
