Hi Robert,
My Feisty just got update few minutes ago (april 10). I rebooted and
the ethernet connection was not setup after reboot. I had to click again
on the small network applet in toolbar and select "Wired Connection".
I tried to change the config of the network interface in "Network
Settings" to enable Roaming mode. I rebooted and still the network
interface is not enabled after I logged in. So I disabled the "Roaming
mode", rebooted and did the following commands;
Immediately after reboot here is the state of my eth0;
$ sudo ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:2C:08:B9:02
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:46 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:26 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:13852 (13.5 KiB) TX bytes:1216 (1.1 KiB)
Interrupt:19 Base address:0x9800
Then I tried to bringup and got the following message;
$ sudo ifup eth0
ifup: interface eth0 already configured
Then I tried to bring down and bring back up and it worked;
$ sudo ifdown eth0
There is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient.eth0.pid with pid 4078
killed old client process, removed PID file

$ sudo ifup eth0

At that point the inerface is fine and up although the applet still
beleive the network interface is still off (this was expected).
Here is my interface file;
~$ sudo cat /etc/network/interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
iface eth0 inet dhcp
auto eth0
This bug is still not fixed.
Are you ok to re-open the bug?
Is there any test I can do on my machine or any files I need to check?
What should I do to re-open the bug, can we transition the bug from
fixed to non fixed. I guess the priority is at least medium if not high.
thanks
Steve
