The drives are on different linux samba <nobr><a class="iAs" style="border-bottom:darkgreen 1px solid;text-decoration:underline;color:darkgreen;background-color:transparent;" href="http://itxt.vibrantmedia.com/al.asp?ipid=7&cc=us&cf=1&ai=3590473&di=100802&ts=20031212165439" target="_blank" oncontextmenu="return false;" onmouseover="kwE(event,100802);" onmouseout="kwL(event);" onmousemove="kwM(100802);">servers</nobr> on different networks.

The problem is, when I access a drive at home, then hibernate the <nobr><a class="iAs" style="border-bottom:darkgreen 1px solid;text-decoration:underline;color:darkgreen;background-color:transparent;" href="http://itxt.vibrantmedia.com/al.asp?ipid=7&cc=us&cf=1&ai=3590473&di=120367&ts=20031212165439" target="_blank" oncontextmenu="return false;" onmouseover="kwE(event,120367);" onmouseout="kwL(event);" onmousemove="kwM(120367);">computer</nobr> and go to work and open up my computer or any other program that needs to read the drive structure, windows hangs for about 30-60 secs, every time I try something.
