[SOLVED] Sleep mode problems....

[jmm]

AS, you are a big help.

Now when it returns from sleep I have to do rfkill list command in Konsole and then rfkill unblock 4 (in this case, see below)....Each time I return from sleep it comes back with one number higher (next time I will have to do rfkill unblock 5....is there a fix so I don't have to do this every time I return from sleep?


[joe@localhost ~]$ rfkill list
0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: yes
        Hard blocked: no
4: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: yes
[joe@localhost ~]$ rfkill unblock 0
[joe@localhost ~]$ rfkill unblock 4

[joe@localhost ~]$ rfkill unblock 0
[joe@localhost ~]$ rfkill unblock 4

not sure if the renumbering is a side effect of the module removal ... you could try to undo the change in /etc/pm/config.d ...

When you do rfkill unblock your network restart ? right ?
you can use:

rfkill unblock all

[jmm]

AS, when I run (in Konsole) rfkill unblock all it still shows 0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: yes
        Hard blocked: no

Is there a way I can delete or uninstall this so everything points to 1: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no

on restart and coming out of sleep.  I think the problem lies in the acer-wireless?



[joe@localhost ~]$ rfkill list
0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: yes
        Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no

Sorry ... the situation is not clear ... to me at least ...

AS, I learned today that if I come out of sleep mode-run a rfkill unblock all command-go to network center-connect with my wireless signal that now works....

It's just not doing it automatically coming out of sleep mode.

I don't know if this helps you but wanted to mention in case it helps with a solution.

Anyway, thanks again for the help.

Glad it work ... beware that we rely on the info you report ...

It's important to know that at least one rfkill unblock command works, now it's only a matter to discover how to execute it automatically upon wake up ....

AS, I have no experience with the following, but it may be helpful:      

You can place your scripts in following directory. They are executed at suspend and resume:

    /etc/pm/sleep.d - Almost all distro including Debian looks here first to run script.
    /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d - Default Debian location.

(source: http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php?topic=93050.0)

Creating your own hooks

If you want to do something specific to your setup during suspend or hibernate, then you can easily put your own hook into /etc/pm/sleep.d. The hooks in this directory will be called in alphabetic order during suspend (that is the reason their names all start with 2 digits, to make the ordering explicit) and in the reverse order during resume. The general convention to be followed on number ordering is:.

00 - 49
    User and most package supplied hooks. If a hook assumes that all of the usual services and userspace infrastructure is still running, it should be here.
50 - 74
    Service handling hooks. Hooks that start or stop a service belong in this range. At or before 50, hooks can assume that all services are still enabled.
75 - 89
    Module and non-core hardware handling. If a hook needs to load/unload a module, or if it needs to place non-video hardware that would otherwise break suspend or hibernate into a safe state, it belongs in this range. At or before 75, hooks can assume all modules are still loaded.
90 - 99
    Reserved for critical suspend hooks.

I am showing a pretty useless demonstration hook here, that will just put some informative lines into your log file:

#!/bin/bash
case $1 in
    hibernate)
        echo "Hey guy, we are going to suspend to disk!"
        ;;
    suspend)
        echo "Oh, this time we are doing a suspend to RAM. Cool!"
        ;;
    thaw)
        echo "Oh, suspend to disk is over, we are resuming..."
        ;;
    resume)
        echo "Hey, the suspend to RAM seems to be over..."
        ;;
    *)  echo "Somebody is calling me totally wrong."
        ;;
esac

Put this into /etc/pm/sleep.d/66dummy, do a chmod +x /etc/pm/sleep.d/66dummy and it will spew some useless lines during suspend and resume.

Thanks, the info looks very useful and exactly what jmm is in need.

jmm,
copy and paste the following script in /etc/pm/sleep.d/88wakeup       (create the file as new)

#!/bin/bash

case $1 in
    hibernate)
        echo "Hey guy, we are going to suspend to disk!"

       /sbin/rfkill unblock all

when done: chmod  700  /etc/pm/sleep.d/88wakeup
