Dell 1505 Wireless and hibernate woes
After my laptop comes out of hibernate, the wireless connection does not work. In fact, it can't see any of the 7 available wireless networks in my area, nevermind the one it was connected to when it went into hibernate mode.
I run /etc/init.d/dbus restart but that does not fix it. It's still unable to see any of the wireless networks in the area. I have to restart the machine for wireless to work again.
Please help me find a solution to this.

Depending on your wireless card, you may need to ensure that the module is
reloaded when you resume your computer. This behavior is defined in the
file /etc/defaults/acpi-support.
If you are using an Intel 3945 wireless card for example, edit the above
mentioned file, and add "ipw3945" to the MODULES variable.
For example...
MODULES="ipw3945"
Others have also recommended to add "networking" to the list of services
to stop within the same file. The variable STOP_SERVICES is where you would
place this option.
For example...
STOP_SERVICES="mysql networking"
Give these a shot and let us know how it works out.

Adding the networking service to the STOP_SERVICES var seems to have done the trick.
Thanks!
