Thanks for pointing out TuxOnIce.  I have been very frustrated by the
"stock" hibernate on my F11 box.  I can hibernate OK, and resume
mostly works, but after resuming I am unable to use the network.
Fiddling with ifconfig (down, up and explicitly configuring it)
doesn't help at all.  So I just have to shut down completely rather
than hibernate.

Ideally whatever TuxOnIce has done to make hibernate work reliably
will be merged into the kernel.org source.

But that takes time, and work.
