Hello,

does this happen all the time or only when you change your laptop
location between putting it to sleep and waking it up?
If the latter, a possible solution is discussed in this thread:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=11061501

There's another solution involving editing some configuration
files that's far more convenient in the long run but I can't find
it again in the mailing list's archives. I'm sure you have to edit
you /etc/hosts file, but I'm not sure there's not another file
to change as well.
Anyway my /etc/hosts file now looks like this (berlin is my computer
name):

##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1       localhost berlin
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1             localhost berlin

Cheers,
Clemence
