This script restarts the wireless system to a point where a reboot is unnecessary. It runs with no output and finishes in ~1 second. When finished, the wireless is normal again.
I made this into a launcher button for a one-click fix, with command: gksudo -- xterm -e "/home/me/reset_wireless.sh; sleep 3" If I eject the card and wait a couple seconds then I can suspend with no issue. Still a sizeable nuisance. My mother wouldn't be able to handle it. More description of the issue: Upon suspend, the card's power indicator turns off, then the "Devices failed to suspend" message is displayed (see dmesg.log) and the power indicator immediately turns back on. The card will then sometimes go into a weird state where it refuses to work. I believe a simple eject cycle isn't sufficient to fix it, although I'm having trouble reproducing the behaviour. --Buck ** Attachment added: "This script fixes the wireless after an attempted suspend." http://launchpadlibrarian.net/28137715/reset_wireless.sh -- Broadcom Corporation BCM43XG will not allow sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295526 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
