velocet.ca
>Environment:
System: FreeBSD canoe.velocet.net 4.5-STABLE FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE #5: Wed Mar 13 16:57:25 EST 2002 dgilbert@canoe.velocet.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/CANOE i386
cvsup preceded kernel compile by 10 minutes. previous cvsup (probably
a month old) din't have this problem.
>Description:
This is an odd one. If I boot with the card in, everything comes up fine.
If I suspend and resume, dhclient won't find the card until dhclient
is _successful_ (just running is not enough) on fxp0 (an internal port).
This all started happening with the most recent cvsup to -STABLE where
the previous one was about a month old. I don't know that this is
related to suspend/resume because inserting the card has the same
result.
A possibly related matter is that the cdrom drive is cantankerous
after a resume (where it used to work flawlessly).
[...resume from suspend...]
[...card beeps and is recognised in ifconfig list...]

suspend/resume laptop with wireless card in, or insert card. See above.
I can make the machine available for testing if need be.
