After upgrading to Kubuntu Natty beta 1 the time for resuming (from RAM) my HP ProBook 6450b has improved significant. Previously I had to wait up to a minute until the wireless card was up and running and I had Internet access. Now it’s only a matter of seconds. My Linux laptop is now fully on par with my old Apple iBook when it comes to suspend/resume (the only area where it was previously lagging).
I can’t say for sure why it’s better now, but I like to think that it’s due to Broadcom’s full-source release of their wireless drivers. Thank you Broadcom!
