Orinoco Solution (so far)
ByEtzionWell, my Orinoco 802.11b mini-pci card had this weird thing – sometimes it failed to start up after suspend. Why? I don’t know. I wasn’t able to understand the cause of it, and not being a coder, I had some hard time tracking kernel driver problems. The error message was the following one: orinoco_lock() called…
