Public bug reported:
Just installed Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid) under Wubi within Windows XP Home
as a Linux newbie. No problem with Ubuntu as such, but after shutting it
down and booting back into Windows the (wired) connection to the router
is lost. Windows reports "Network cable unplugged", which is definitely
not the case; booting back into Ubuntu reconnects to the router without
any problem. When Ubuntu is shutting down, I see the relevant light go
out on the router. If I just switch the power off without exiting
Ubunutu "properly" the router connection is maintained and all is well
in Windows!
My layman's take on this is that there is some kind of script being
automatically run during Ubuntu shutdown that switches off the router
connection, and which Windows doesn't seem to be able to reverse when it
boots up. I was referred here from the Ubuntu forums; it was suggested
that this may be a bug.
Thanks in anticipation for any thoughts / suggestions.
