Title:
[Hardy] tg3 network driver doesn't come up via NetworkManger
consistently
Status in The Somerville Project:
Invalid
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Several machines in the Dell platform use tg3 as an ethernet driver.
This driver itself functions properly, but NetworkManager won't always
bring it up on the first try.
It seems there needs to be an extra delay with this driver from when
NetworkManager starts to look for an address with it. This behavior
can be seen either when the link is active (cable being plugged in),
or when resuming from a suspend.
The problem is typically resolved by selecting nm-applet and re-
requesting a network address the second time or by running dhclient
manually on the command line.
