It seems to me that my Dell D620 has similar problems. I typically use it wireless at home, suspend, dock it at work, and resumes. The network icon will then show up as if the wired network is working, but eth0 will not have an IP address. Clicking the 'wired network' item in the menu (twice?) fixes the problem.
I wonder if it is just the DHCP server that is slow to respond, and/or that the icon displays as connected to avahi being up and running? (I.e. eth0:avah is up). -k -- Ethernet interface not configured at boot time https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94095 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
