SOORAJ S, unfortunately, it isn't adding anything to this report. Hence,
could you please boot into the x64 (not 32-bit) version of
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ and then run the command
without quotes?

Title:
  Ethernet Connection randomly disconnects after transmit queue 0 timed
  out

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Description of problem:

  Ethernet connection gets disconnected at random apparently without any
  reason. I have tried the following command to restart my ethernet
  connection, `sudo service network-manager restart` though it never
  solved the issue. Every time I have to restart my system to get the
  connection back.

  see: `http://askubuntu.com/questions/615423/ethernet-connection-
  randomly-disconnects-after-transmit-queue-0-timed-out`

  OBSERVATION: It happens more frequently when I make calls in skype or
  hangout. It seems that heavy usage of Ethernet is causing the
  disconnection. It happens in both 32bit and 64bit.

  Debug steps tried so far:

  I tried to change from `r8169` to `r8168` but never solved the
  problem, ethernet connection is unstable as before.

  After the event as shown in dmesg output my connection is lost.

  NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (r8169): transmit queue 0 timed out

  As a Solution to the problem:

  I installed kernel version `3.2.0-83-generic` manually, it solved the
  problem and ethernet connection is perfect.

  Other kernels in which ethernet connection is stable: 3.2.0-98-generic, 
3.2.0-83-generic
  Other kernels in which ethernet connection is not stable: 4.2.0-27-generic, 
4.2.0-30-generic, 3.13.0-33-generic, 3.13.0-36-generic, 3.5.0-27-generic

  So it seems to be related to the kernel not with my hardware nor the
  driver.
