Hi everyone, hope you can help. A few days ago I created a file that I called 99fixwifi.sh, put it in /etc/pm/sleep.d as per instructions that I found here. The code within the file was this:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
. "${PM_FUNCTIONS}"
resume_wifi()
{
# Stop networking and network-manager
stop network-manager
service networking stop
# Remove and reload the module for the wifi card
modprobe -r -f iwlwifi
modprobe iwlwifi
# Start networking and network-manager again
service networking start
start network-manager
}
case "$1" in
thaw|resume)
resume_wifi
;;
*) exit $NA
;;
esac
I changed the original iwlagn to iwlwifi because it didn't fix the suspend problem, and I thought it didn't work because I had listed the wrong module in the code. I thought iwlwifi was correct.
Today, after a shutdown, my wireless has entirely stopped working. I dual boot, and it isn't working in Win7 either. It used to work (for about a year) successfully in both, barring the suspend issue I was trying to fix in ubuntu.
Here is the wifi guideline recommended info:

Let me know if you can help. I also ran into "error inserting mac8011" and "error inserting iwlwifi" errors, which I'm not sure how to fix.
