Can you say what updates you have had since?
 $ rpm -qa --last | less
then paste the latest updates back to when it worked, as best as you can judge. Looking for a relevant update that might have caused the problem.

Hi!

Seems like the problem fixed itself up after some updates recently (possibly the grep-exit-code-related initscripts bug that was fixed). It also now restores networking after suspending-and-waking up which was also an issue. Marking as WORKSFORME.
