Thank you for your reply.
Previously, I had only unsed
modprobe for removing and reloading the drivers.
I will try
rmmod to see if that uses a different (maybe more thorough) method.
Using
modprobe didn't work because the card itself somehow became "disabled" in the suspend process.
I started to wonder if there wasn't something like an internal "wake up" signal that I could send to the adapter, from a terminal,
that would allow the driver reload to be effective.
That is what prompted my post.
This has been on the RedHat bug list for a long time.
I am hoping to find some kind of a workaround until they get it fixed.
