OK. This is what I've been able to come up with so far:
* with 2.6.31.x the warning shows up more or less every suspend-to-ram cycle;
* with 2.6.32-rc the warning never shows up;
* with 2.6.31.x when the warning shows up wifi is unusable until rfkill cycle;
* whith 2.6.32-rc after suspend-to-ram cycle wifi is unusable and
rfkill does not cure it unless I rfkill it off - suspend-to-ram -
resume - rfkill it on. This seems to work.
When wifi does not work in 2.6.32-rc the messages show:
---------------------------------------------
[ 49.647233] wlan0: direct probe to AP xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (try 1)
[ 49.649234] wlan0: direct probe responded
[ 49.649244] wlan0: authenticate with AP xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (try 1)
[ 49.650546] wlan0: authenticated
[ 49.650581] wlan0: associate with AP xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (try 1)
[ 49.652183] wlan0: RX AssocResp from xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (capab=0x451
status=12 aid=1)
[ 49.652190] wlan0: AP denied association (code=12)
---------------------------------------------
The script I feed to pm-utils to have wifi work across the
suspend-to-ram cycle is just:
---------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
RFKILL=`basename /sys/devices/platform/eeepc/rfkill/*`
case "$1" in
hibernate|suspend)
cat /sys/devices/platform/eeepc/rfkill/$RFKILL/state >
/tmp/suspend
echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/eeepc/rfkill/$RFKILL/state
;;
thaw|resume)
cat /tmp/suspend >
/sys/devices/platform/eeepc/rfkill/$RFKILL/state
;;
*) exit $NA
;;
esac
---------------------------------------------
I can confirm that with 32-rc sometimes the screen flickers badly
after resume, for example running a simple dmesg command. However,
nothing is written in the logs, neither messages nor Xorg.0.log.
Chipset is i915.
Hope this helps. Please note that git is not an option for me on this machine.
