I've got a HP Probook 5310m with Kubuntu 9.10 with the gnome networkmanager applet (otherwise I can't get my secure wireless to work). And have exactly the same problems. When booting without cable no networkcard is listed. When booting with cable no probs (using it right now). But when I unplug it, the system crashes and cabs-lock light is on. David, did you already found a solution for this?
