wi-fi doesn't work on T23 after sleep/suspension in Debian7

#1 Post by arabianights » Wed Aug 21, 2013 12:08 pm

hi,

i recently upgraded to Debian7 from 6 on my T23. but after the upgrade, the wifi card(Netgear WG511) doesn't seem to be able to wake up after sleep/suspension.

I'm using Debian7 XFCE.

any suggestions?

Maybe you need to unload the appropriate kernel module before you enter suspend.
