 (staging-26).  Had a connection to a wireless (WEP) AP.  Closed the XO's
 lid.  After opening the lid, did not have a connection.  Got impatient,
 took "noresume" olpc-log.

 Rebooted; the XO automatically connected to the AP.  Captured 'ifconfig'
 to file "before".  Closed the XO's lid; after a while re-opened lid.
 Waited.  Seemingly a long time afterward, the XO prompted me for the AP's
 key.  When I gave it the key, the XO reconnected to the AP.  Took "resume"
 olpc-log; ifconfig (to file "after") shows state same as before the
 shutdown/resume.

 [[BR]]Seems to me there were two things wrong:  (1) It should not take
 minutes after a resume for a wireless connection to be re-established;
 (2) Asking the user for the WEP key after a 'suspend/resume' seems like
 too much of a hassle.
