 {{{
 (05:30:02 PM) bertf: cjb: mine loses connectivity after suspending ... but
 that's not what you mean?
 (05:32:10 PM) cjb: bertf: after sleepipng, you mean?
 (05:32:22 PM) cjb: (lid close or power press)
 (05:32:32 PM) bertf: cjb: after idling
 (05:32:38 PM) cjb: bertf: that doesn't happen here
 (05:32:41 PM) cjb: bertf: which build?
 (05:32:51 PM) cjb: (how long idling?)
 (05:33:07 PM) bertf: cjb: latest joyride, mp machine, about 30 secs
 (05:33:15 PM) cjb: huh
 (05:33:21 PM) cjb: I think that's what I'm running too, and it works
 (05:33:40 PM) cjb: bertf: which joyride exactly?
 (05:33:48 PM) cjb: bertf: what happens to the connection?  does ifconfig
 still have an IP?
 (05:34:15 PM) bertf: cjb: 1949. ifdown/up fixes it
 (05:34:31 PM) cjb: bertf: I'm curious whether you have an IP after this
 happens or not
 (05:34:52 PM) bertf: cjb: yes, ifconfig reports the right ip
 (05:34:57 PM) cjb: bertf: that's not good
 (05:35:28 PM) cjb: dwmw2: do you know what the status of the libertas
 that's in latest joyride is?  Bert seems to be losing connectivity after
 suspend.
 (05:35:42 PM) cjb: bertf: I'll try on my MP, I'm a few builds back,
 thanks.
 (05:36:22 PM) dwmw2: cjb: not offhand. Is that still the stable kernel?
 (05:36:23 PM) bertf: cjb: I'm not sure this is a recent problem. I usually
 had the idle-suspend disabled, but upgrade recently
 (05:36:39 PM) cjb: dwmw2: dunno.
 (05:36:51 PM) cjb: bertf: but it works fine here.
 (05:36:58 PM) dwmw2: would be interesting to see libertas debug output
 when it fails.
 (05:37:02 PM) cjb: bertf: this is a wireless connection via
 NetworkManager?
 (05:37:09 PM) dwmw2: didn't we still have some outstanding concern about
 suspend/resume sometimes failing?
 (05:37:27 PM) cjb: dwmw2: not that I know of
 (05:37:37 PM) bertf: cjb: yes, to my access point.
 (05:37:42 PM) cjb: (we have an outstanding concern about RTC resumes being
 possibly flaky, so we don't do that anymore.)
 (05:37:53 PM) bertf: cjb: the wireless led is off
 (05:38:08 PM) cjb: bertf: I wonder if dmesg says anything about it
 (05:38:24 PM) cjb: bertf: would you mind filing a bug, assign to dwmw2,
 attach dmesg and look at getting libertas_debug output too?
 (05:38:34 PM) cjb: I'll try to reproduce, but since I've never seen this
 before I'm not sure I'm going to be able to
 (05:39:05 PM) bertf: cjb: will do ...
