[Solved]NetworkManager - Disconnect from Networks on Suspend/Hibernate

pyther · 2011-04-20 12:50:59

Hello.

Does anyone know if it is possible to disconnect from connected networks on Suspend/Hibernate (NetworkManager). It seems as if arch use to have /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/55NetworkManager along with many other distros. However, as far as I can tell this file no longer exists. I'm going to guess there is a dbus command I can issue, but I'm not aware of it.

/etc/pm/sleep.d/50networkmanager

#!/bin/sh
#
# 50networkmanager: disable network manager

case "$1" in
hibernate|suspend)
nmcli nm sleep true
;;
thaw|resume)
nmcli nm sleep false
;;
*) exit $NA
;;
esac

This seems to do the trick

nm uses upower events to know what to do:

Does pm-utils send a signal to upower letting it know that the machine is going to suspend? When I suspend my machine using sudo pm-suspend, the connection to the wireless never gets killed and when I resume NM still thinks I'm connected to that the wireless network (even if I am in a completely different location). This doesn't happen with the above script

Arch Linux
