boozker, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional 
upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the kernel in the 
daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the 
upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested 
and remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located 
at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the text:
needs-upstream-testing

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, please comment as to why 
specifically you were unable to test it and add the following tags:
kernel-unable-to-test-upstream
kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Ethernet doesn't work after disconnecting and then reconnecting after
  being connected to wifi

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: network-manager

  I'm on a Lenovo ThinkPad L512 running Ubuntu 10.10 and first found
  this bug in Ubuntu 10.04 and this bug was happening each morning to
  me.

  Steps to reproduce were:
  1. Connect to Ethernet/network here at work (a closed network)
  2. Unplug and go home
  3. Connect to wifi
  4. Close lid and walk to work (wifi disconnected)
  5. Plug in ethernet.

  At step 5 Ubuntu wouldn't even notice that I had plugged it in. I followed 
all the steps in Maco's help here:
  
http://askubuntu.com/questions/6129/why-does-my-ethernet-port-sometimes-not-work

  Each time however, all the steps she asked me to do just gave me:
  "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot allocate memory"

  I checked the memory via free -m and I had sometimes up to 1.1-2GBs of
  free memory. I searched the web and i did these steps and i got my
  Ethernet back up:

  lspci| grep -i ethernet
  dmesg | grep -i ethernet
  sudo service network-manager stop
  sudo ifconfig eth0 up
  sudo dhclient eth0
  sudo service network-manager start

  I'm not sure if i have to do all of those or not, but those seemed to
  make it work finally after over a week of each day trying out
  different things.
