I've experienced the same problem with openSUSE 12.1 and KDE or xfce. I've found a clumsy workaround, that might also help here:
When the system should be suspended, the NetworkManager gets notified by a dbus call. You can generate this call manually by qdbus --system org.freedesktop.NetworkManager /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Sleep boolean:true This results, that NetworkManager shuts down all its network interfaces. To wake him up again, following call can be used: qdbus --system org.freedesktop.NetworkManager /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Sleep boolean:false At SUSE, this call is performed by /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/55NetworkManager and can be overwritten by /etc/pm/sleep.d/55NetworkManager Disabling this call, results into a working suspend mechanism for KDE and a NFS Home directory. However, xfce additional calls org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Sleep boolean:true directly. However, modifying this file to always wake-up NetworkManager results into a working (but clumsy solution), because, xfce calls NetworkManager sleep NetworkManager shuts down all network interfaces [...] modified /etc/pm/sleep.d/55NetworkManager wakes up NetworkManager again Network connections are reestablished again [...] system is going into suspend. I don't have a Ubuntu at hand, but I expect, that this workaround can be adapted for Ubuntu and Gnome. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516592 Title: Network manager kills NFS link on going to sleep hanging Gnome etc. To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/network-manager/+bug/516592/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
