happening with bond interfaces as well, not only bridges. Everything
that's not physical seemed to be affected.

Title:
kvm images losing connectivity w/bridged network
I've installed the libvirt package in lucid-proposed and this issue
hasn't reoccurred for me! Very happy user here. :)
Right after installation it did happen again though, but I forgot to do
'service libvirt-bin restart'. After that I've started/stopped VMs more
than 20 times, all running smooth.
Accepted libvirt into lucid-proposed, the package will build now and be
available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!
