This is a problem with the ne2k-pci driver, for which NetworkManager
claims:
Feb 3 21:50:36 ubuntu NetworkManager: <information>^Ieth0: Driver
'ne2k-pci' does not support carrier detection. ^IYou must switch to it
manually.
A workaround is to not use NetworkManager and let ifupdown deal with the
DHCP. This is done by having:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
lines in /etc/network/interfaces.
