Comment 27 for bug 190664

Does anyone experiencing this issue on Linux also have issues under Vista? Under Vista it's usually impossible to getting the wireless network back up and running after standby or hibernation and when running on the battery, and which I can't seem to resolve using different Intel drivers or tweaking various driver, quickset, or power settings.

I do realise this isn't a forum but maybe there is a connection with the "deep sleep" messages I have also been seeing in Linux on this laptop, on which never appeared on a previous - identical - laptop. If there is a connection, it could be a hardware issue that Dell is sweeping under a rug... and not an Ubuntu bug at all... In fact the same issue on battery appears also on Ubuntu, even with the noapic parameter.
Running BIOS version A08 now, which improved touchpad craziness after sleep, but didn't improve the wireless issues at all.
