NM is likely to be very unhappy if you just suspend it, and wireless drivers in general have issues with suspend. There really is no method for NM to know when you've put the computer to sleep since nothing sends global events out (PowerManager+HAL will eventually do this the Right Way using dbus). NM does have a "sleep" dbus method that will make NM stop and down all devices, and a "wake" method to wake it up. Those should be able to be done in the ACPI scripts fairly simply: /usr/bin/dbus-send --system --dest=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager --type=method-call /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.sleep sleep 5; and: /usr/bin/dbus-send --system --dest=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager --type=method-call /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.wake Dan _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
