Subject says the basic problem, if I have ethernet connection and shut down the laptop (Compaq Presario 1700t ), the next time I boot it I get a message that eth0 is removed. I do a restart and eth0 is recognized and it asks if I want to configure it. Am I shutting down incorrectly ? Or is there a switch or something else I should do? I can understand if I had disconnected the card but It is still in the slot. I have looked all over the man and howtos no idea what is flakey. Thanks for any pointers -- Dennis M. Linux user #180842
