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. ----- root@thinkpad:~# service network-manager stop network-manager stop/waiting root@thinkpad:~# ifconfig eth0 -
