[Bug 1052873] Re: network-manager tries to connect to eth0 when cable is unplugged -- Intel 82577LM e1000e

 

Matt Price, as per http://download.lenovo.com/express/ddfm.html an
update is available for your BIOS (1.45). If you update to this
following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change
anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  network-manager tries to connect to eth0 when cable is unplugged --
  Intel 82577LM e1000e

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Even when the cable is unplugged, n-m tries for quite a while to
  connect to Auto eth0.  As my wireless connection is unreliable, this
  makes for a confusing wait while the wireless signal is negotiated.
  This has just started happening since the upgrade to quantal.
