Elysium got me N+ for the Nintendo DS this Christmas, and I’ve been thoroughly enjoying battling my way through the 300 single player levels, which are all varied and fun. I’ve unfortunately not had chance to try the multiplayer, and the online N+ Community facility just refuses to work for me, which is annoying.

Now that I’m back from University for Christmas I don’t need to leave my Linux workstation on permanently. I’d like to be able to suspend and resume it, except I’m having one problem. On resume, the network card does not switch to gigabit, instead staying at 100mbit. I have Googled around but have been unable to find a solution. For now, if I need gigabit speeds the solution seems to be to remove the r8169 module and insert it again:
sudo rmmod r8169 sudo modprobe r8169
Bear in mind doing this will obviously cut out your network connection, so don’t do it over SSH!
Does anyone know of a proper solution? Or a more elegant hack.

I updated my post on WordPress (and Super Cache) rewrite rules today after receiving a comment from Robert (cheers!) that you don’t need to use mod_rewrite at all if you are using mod_magnet, and by using mod_magnet alone you remove the need for all the exceptions. A much cleaner solution. Thanks Robert!

Until the day that Moore’s Law completely gives out on us, one thing’s for sure: hardware is cheap — and programmers are expensive.
