Bug#464373: linux-image-2.6.24-1-686: iwl3945 suspend/resume needs pre-up line
Package: linux-image-2.6.24-1-686
Version: 2.6.24-2
Severity: normal
For the iwl3945 driver to come up using ifup and work after an S3
resume, I needed a 'pre-up' line in /etc/network/interfaces to bring
the interface up. The card would otherwise not associate to the
access point, even after setting the essid with iwconfig.
Here is a working stanza with the pre-up line:
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
pre-up ifconfig wlan0 up
wireless_essid MakeTeaNotWar
The machine is a Thinkpad T60 (with Intel wireless and graphics).
I added this stanza as an example at <http://wiki.debian.org/iwlwifi>
