I took it out of the kernel, and added bits to unload/load the sound module in suspend/resume rc scripts, and now sound comes back after resume, works fine, every time. I'm tempted to try similar things with my wireless card, which occasionally won't come back after resume, and seems to require a reboot. nathan --- Doug Ambrisko wrote: > Peter Radcliffe writes: > | "Brian T .
