and yet with debugging disabled, there's no cpu usage, so perhaps |
| 10 |
there's just a problem with my syslog-ng rules? |

I appreciate the humour, but so far for me, it's Just Worked(TM). Even |
| 18 |
with this log file annoyance, it's still "working". |

I had a look at that, but it doesn't do 2 things that I use |
| 23 |
NetworkManager for: |
| 24 |
1. mobile broadband (essential for on the road) |
| 25 |
2. NetworkManager sends dbus messages that evolution uses to toggle |
| 26 |
its online / offline state. I was sick of forever waiting for |
| 27 |
evolution to time out because I'd gone offline. (Granted, you |
| 28 |
may think evolution is another POS, but it does certain things |
| 29 |
that no other mail client can do, but that's another story) |

I found a post that suggested in fact iwlagn wasn't reloading properly |
| 32 |
after a suspend, so I've added "UnloadModules iwlagn" |
| 33 |
to /etc/hibernate/common.conf and so far I haven't seen the spurious log |
| 34 |
messages (cross my fingers). |
