Comment 20 for bug 490742

I had 10 second resume on Maverick with my MacBook 5,1 as well. However, I have gotten ~5 second resume as well as instant wireless connection by editing this file: gksu gedit /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/55NetworkManager
and changing the bottom section thus (commenting out suspend and resume of NetworkManager):

case "$1" in
 hibernate|suspend)
  #suspend_nm
  ;;
 thaw|resume)
  #resume_nm
  ;;
 *) exit $NA
  ;;
