Description Lex 2011-09-06 00:19:59 UTC
I initially reported this against Fedora's bugzilla, but have just reproduced same bug with Debian's kernel.

Description of problem:
Wireless fails to work after I put laptop to sleep.
Laptop is new Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E320.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

uname -a
Linux thinkfed 2.6.40.3-0.fc15.i686 #1 SMP Tue Aug 16 04:24:09 UTC 2011 i686
i686 i386 GNU/Linux

yum list installed | kernel
kernel.i686                     2.6.40.3-0.fc15     @updates                    


How reproducible:
Just tried multiple times after rebooting and happened everytime.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Put laptop to sleep.
2. Wake laptop from sleep.
3. Can't use wireless (option to enable wireless in network manager isn't even
available [it's greyed out]).

Noticed warning in dmesg output about RF_KILL switch (see below).
This laptop doesn't have a wifi switch.
And I get this same result if I sleep by closing laptop lid, or just sleep by
choosing sleep from software menu without opening/closing laptop lid.

Need to reboot to get wifi access again.

Actual results:

Let me know what other info is required.

Expected results:

Does this problem persist with 3.2 kernels?
