Update: The issue can be replicated on either the 2.6.10-15, or the 2.6.10-16 kernel if the network connection is changed during the suspend when then machine is in stasis.
Example: 1) Machine is working fine with various applications open, sometimes (but not always) including evolution with a WiFi PCMCIA removable card. 2) Close lid to suspend. Machine SUSPENDS-TO-RAM. Remove card, pack laptop in bag. 3) Arrive at location where I will use a ethernet CAT5 cable & plug cable into laptop. 4) Open Lid. Everything seems fine. Five to ten minutes later machine begins to hang when evolution is used, either from the previous launch prior from suspend, or from a relaunch after waking. Something is confusing the kernel when the internet connection change occurs during the suspend. Probably not that big a deal for most modern laptops which have internal wireless cards, but those who don't - its annoying. Workaround: DO NOT reconnect a different internet connection prior to awakening the machine. After the machine has awoken, it seems not to be a problem to either plugin the CAT5 cable (or insert the WiFi card). - CH -- Kernel update 2.6.20-16.32 breaks evolution/wifi/suspend https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145903 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
