I've had trouble with the ath device in my IBM T42p resuming properly
after a suspend.  Oddly enough, it only seems to happen with I'm
running X, if I swith to another vty before I suspend, and switch back
after I resume, then it works.

For now I just run an /etc/rc.d/netif restart ath0 when I resume.

I've shown this to Sam Leffler and he also sees resume problems on a
similar system.  It's in his queue of things to fix.

Does suspend/resume work for you?  I'm running w/ dhclient and
wpa_supplicant using simple WEP keys.
