Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.32

After booting Ubuntu 10.04 (amd64), my RTL8111/8168B network card (driver: r8169) is reported as not connected to the wired network - even after rebooting into Windows 7 or Ubuntu 9.10. A cold reboot solves the problem. For further information on this bug, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1436667 .
