Possibly a driver issue

** Summary changed:

- network-manager fails to detect link status change
+ NetworkManager fails to detect link status change -- Intel 82577LM e1000e

** Description changed:

  Steps to reproduce:
  
  1.) Start Ubuntu, with LAN plugged in, login
- 2.) Verify Network Manager detects the Wired Connection
- 3.) stop Network manager
+ 2.) Verify NetworkManager detects the Wired Connection
+ 3.) stop NetworkManager
  4.) unplug LAN cable
- 5.) start Network manager
- Result: Network manager doesn't detect that eth0 is not in RUNNING state
+ 5.) start NetworkManager
+ Result: NetworkManager doesn't detect that eth0 is not in the RUNNING state
  
  Plugging in LAN cable doesn't change state either, i.e. eth0 remains
  unconfigured.
