[Bug 997767] Re: 10ec:8139 Network connection rtl8139 lost after some hours of inactivity and comes up again on user interaction

 

Luca Carlon, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  10ec:8139 Network connection rtl8139 lost after some hours of
  inactivity and comes up again on user interaction

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Since I upgraded to Kubuntu 12.04 I started to experience this issue:
  after some hours of inactivity of my desktop, network connection
  suddenly disappears. This means that the server is not reachable
  anymore from the network. By inactivity I mean direct user input:
  connection sometimes stops when streaming data to the network.

  After this happens, plugging in the mouse or simply pressing any
  button on the keyboard makes the screen turn on (of course this is
  correct) and the system is reachable again on the network.

  [Ignore apport collection 9-29 - they're the wrong machine!]
