Cocodude, thank you for testing Trusty. Would you need a backport to a release prior to Trusty, or may this be closed as Status Invalid? ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which

As I have a spare Ethernet card (albeit slower) I can live with this until Trusty. However, is Invalid the correct status considering it is a valid bug report? It just happens to be fixed upstream. I guess if you don't have any other suitable statuses it's fine, but I can see this being confusing

Cocodude, thank you for your comments. Regarding them : However, is Invalid the correct status considering it is a valid bug report? Yes. It just happens to be fixed upstream. if it's fixed in Trusty, it's fixed downstream as well. I guess if you don't have any other suitable statuses it's

Cocodude, ok. Given the fix is available in mainline, could you please confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily- live/current/ . If the issue remains, could you please just make a comment to this. **

I tested this with v3.13-rc3-trusty but r8169 worked just fine along with DHCP and I was able to ping the outside world. So, it's some commit inbetween 3.11.0-14-generic and 3.13-rc3-trusty that's caused the issue. I don't think I'll have time to do a full bisect but I might be able to try and

Cocodude, could you please test the latest mainline kernel via http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.13-rc1-trusty/ and advise to the results? If reproducible with it, the next step is to fully commit bisect from 13.04 to 13.10, in order to identify the offending commit following

Hi, I just tried with 3.12.0-031200-generic and although I don't get the dmesg errors, it doesn't detect the Ethernet cable or does DHCP client work. So, the evidence suggests this isn't entirely fixed upstream yet. uname -a: Linux flibble 3.12.0-031200-generic #201311071835 SMP Thu Nov 7
