Bug Description
Kubuntu 6.10 beta 1, plus dist-upgrades to 2006-10-15. I'm running on an HP nc6400 with an Intel T7200 CPU, bios rev F.05. I'm using the acpi-support /etc/acpi/
Before hibernating, the ipw3945 is working fine: I can iwlist and I can associate with wifi access points. Hibernate and resume both succeed. However, after resuming, iwlist shows no results:
$ iwlist eth1 scan
eth1 Interface doesn't support scanning.
The problem is simple enough to work around:
$ sudo modprobe -r ipw3945; sudo modprobe ipw3945
After that, my wifi works again.
I've added ipw3945 to the /etc/default/
Hardware details:
$ lspci | grep 3945
10:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02)

Please let me know if I can provide any other information that would help.
I've confirmed the suggested workaround:
$ grep ^MODULES /etc/default/ acpi-support
MODULES="ipw3945"
