    Sometimes after I resume from sleep on my linpus AAO, I can't reconnect to wireless. It just displays a greyed out "Networking Disabled" when I click on my networking icon.

    Yes, wireless is on, and no, neither Wired nor Wireless are disabled under the Preferences.

    Has anyone else had (or better yet, solved) this problem?

    I do not run Linpus, but I would try:
    Code:
    sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
    in a terminal. You can get a terminal window by pressing [ctrl]+[alt]+[F2], and get back to the graphical terminal with [ctrl]+[alt]+[F7].
    Does that help?

    Well, [ctrl]+[alt]+[F2] doesn't work for me... nor do I have a "/etc/init.d/networking", but running the following restarts my networking. I'll try that next time I have the problem:
    Code:
    sudo /etc/init.d/NetworkManager restart
    Thanks sooooo much for the lead!!!
