Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
Sometimes (not always) at startup the ethernet connection does not
establish. Network-manager shows connected, but all the IP addresses are
0.0.0.0 (in "Verbindungsinformationen"). Network manager does not react
on plug-off / plug-in of the ethernet cable, in these cases. I found no
way to connect then, except of restarting the PC (sometimes 3x) until
the connection works after start-up.
What should happen:
Every time I start the computer, it connects to the ethernet. If the ethernet
cable is plugged off, network manager applet shows a "connection failed". If I
plug in the cable, network manager establishes an ethernet connecion.
What happens:
If I start the computer, it does not connect to ethernet. If the ethernet cable
is plugged off, network manager shows a "connection active", but connection is
not working. If I plug in the cable, network manager does not do anything,
connection is not working.
Hint:
Probably it has to do with the Programs that are loaded at start-up: Since I
Installed xscreensaver and load it at start up, the problem appears much more
often (about every second time). Before it appeared maybe once a week.
My system Ubuntu 8.04:
Linux system 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Jun 4 16:35:01 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
I had the same problem in KDE in Kubuntu 7.10.
