Hello Adam,

I'm reviewing this bug as part of the kernel bug triage project, an attempt to
isolate current bugs in the fedora kernel.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelBugTriage

I am CC'ing myself to this bug and will try and assist you in resolving it if I can.

There hasn't been much activity on this bug for a while. Could you tell me if
you are still having problems with the latest kernel? If you are, please could
you attach an lspci -vvxxx output as well as dmesg output to this bug.

If the problem no longer exists then please close this bug or I'll do so in a
few days if there is no additional information lodged.

Cheers
Chris

Hello

This machine is running rawhide now.  Suspend not working as of today, but I'll
report that separately.

Adam

Comment 3 Christopher Brown 2007-09-21 23:32:26 UTC
Please could you post back the output from:

# lspci -vvxxx
# lsmod

You may wish to also try rmmod'ing the wireless module in question and see
whether your machine is able to suspend successfully then.

Cheers
Chris

It's working with F8 so I'm closing the bug.
