Hi, this is a long lasting problem that I didn’t really manage to fix when I started using linux (Mint, Cinnamon). But now that I’ve been using it regularly for half a year and I have more experience in fiddling around, I’m trying to get it resolved.
Whenever I suspend the laptop (or close the lid, which does it automatically) the Wifi and sometimes an external monitor don’t work anymore, I don’t know what the problem is. The wifi is fixed by powering on and off again. To fix the monitor sometimes even powering off and on again didn’t fix it, I usually waited for the next day and it worked again.
I’ve no idea of how to fix this (Linux Mint forums didn’t help at the time)
Laptop is an MSI GS65-Stealth-Thin-8RF running Linux Mint, with Cinnamon Desktop

you have to replace the ## with &&
the name should be iwlwifi
how do I check the name? because iwlwifi doesn’t work
well, are you sure the script is executed? I don’t know systemd enough :-(
First, do a test in command line modprobe -r iwlwifi
then suspend your laptop, resume it after a few seconds then do
modprobe iwlwifi
and see if wifi is working
Yeah, thanks for the help even if you don’t know much. I get stuck on the first command where I get this error:
rmmod: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod-module.c:799 kmod_module_remove_module() could not remove 'iwlmvm': Operation not permitted rmmod: ERROR: could not remove module iwlmvm: Operation not permitted rmmod: ERROR: Module iwlwifi is in use by: iwlmvm modprobe: FATAL: Error running remove command for iwlwifiyes of course
sudo modprobe -r iwlwifi
I’ve tried. After suspension but before modprobe the wifi is not available, after modprobe it is there, but is disabled and cannot be enabled.
So I don’t know :-(
Have you disabled Fast Boot in your BIOS ?
It was but it got reenabled, I disabled it again but it still doesn’t work damn. I’ll post the Intel I gathered on the Linux mint forum (I did in the past but now I have more information)
