2008-10-06 22:50:28 Alexander Sack network-manager: statusexplanation i guess your log snippet starts with a disconnect event? Anyway, if you get carrier OFF regularly, this either is a driver issue or maybe even a physical one (e.g. bad cable). Reassigning to linux since network manager appears to be working as good as possible (e.g. reconnecting after carrier OFF).

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it without more information. Please include the following additional information, if you have not already done so (pay attention to lspci's additional options), as required by the Ubuntu Kernel Team: 1. Please include the output of the command "uname -a" in your next response. It should be one, long line of text which includes the exact kernel version you're running, as well as the CPU architecture. 2. Please run the command "dmesg > dmesg.log" after a fresh boot and attach the resulting file "dmesg.log" to this bug report. 3. Please run the command "sudo lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.log" and attach the resulting file "lspci-vvnn.log" to this bug report. 4. Please attach your /var/log/kern.log and /var/log/syslog after these network problems occur (preferably annotated so it is easy to find in the logs) For your reference, the full description of procedures for kernel-related bug reports is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies Thanks in advance!
