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://

I'm using the latest kernel released (2.6.32-24) and am having this problem. The only difference is warm rebooting works for mine.
This is my NIC, and it is an on-board ethernet chip belonging to Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H

I have the r8168B and it is unusable in 10.04 32bit LTS. This was a new HP desktop and has Windows 7 which works fine. I installed Ubuntu as a dual boot and the network card didn't work. One time in probably 50 reboots it did work in Ubuntu. Warm booting from windows or cold booting have not helped me at all.
After some research what I have found is for some reason Ubuntu installs the wrong driver -> r8169B. I was able to download and compile the new driver just find. The problem is I'm unsure how to install and test to see if it will fix this. I added "blacklist r8169" to /etc/modules.
I can manually modprobe r8168 and it installs but doesn't associate with the card. The purpose of this post is to let everyone know the problem looks like the wrong driver and hopefully someone can respond with what I'm doing wrong here to install it.
Here is where I found the driver and some non 10.04 instructions:

I was able to get the r8168 driver working. For some reason the command in the instructions I linked above "update-initramfs -v -u -k `uname -r`" didn't work but "update-initramfs -u" fixed the blacklist problem.

By the way,
could you also update the 8.04LST server driver (and the network boot initrd image),
the bug is old...
there are some little change between the 8168 and 8169 that are not correctly managed by the linux r8169 driver.
a "remix" from this and the original 8168 one is more than urgent...

I've found other similar bugs all marked "fix released" before:
r8169 driver does not detect link

realtek gigabit ethernet not recognised on feisty

My card's PCI ID is 10ec:8168.
I also tested it in Ubuntu Maverick RC (live desktop) and although the Network Manager searched for a few seconds, couldn't obtain a lease.
I'll be trying the workaround mentioned in the above bugs and reporting back.

I'll be opening a new bug about this for Maverick, as the cold boot workaround mentioned here does not work for me and I suspect this is a different card.

FWIW, we ended up buying a cheap comaptible card and using that instead.

I don't have access to this system anymore, I am awaiting confirmation the original owner will be opening a new bug for this.

This problem still exits in both Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10.
Only difference is that 10.04 works after *SEVERAL* times of warm reboot whereas 10.10 requires cold reboot.

I have the same problem under 10.10, kernel 2.6.35-22.34.
There seems to be some bad interaction between Windows and Linux (my lan chip is sometimes asleep under linux, then also under windows. Cold boot makes everythink ok again).
Installing the r8168 driver from realtek (unknown LICENCE)
solves (for now...) the issue:
1) compile and install it as root (using the provided autorun.sh script)
2) blacklist 8169 by: cat blacklist r8169 > /etc/modprobe.
3) update the initramfs: update-initramfs -u
reboot... it apparently works

I also have this problem with 10.10, kernel 2.6.35-22-34. Brand-new motherboard is ASUS P7P55D- E PRO with Realtek "8112L" Ethernet chip. (Realtek website doesn't know about 8112 - I think it's actually the RTL8111.)
Ethernet works fine under WinXP, but when I boot into Ubuntu the ethernet is no longer working. What's worse, it kills ethernet when I boot back into Windows. Turning ethernet OFFin the bios, booting into Windows, restarting, turning ethernet back ON in the bios, rebooting into Windows *sometimes* gets it working again in Windows (others have reported turning PC for a time fixes the problem). I've never had it working in Ubuntu.
There seem to be a lot of related "Linux/Ubuntu killed my ethernet" threads over the last year or so...this seems to be fairly common. I almost started to RMA my MB!

Wanted to add another report. as of 10/26/2010
Brand new Dell XPS 9100 Realtek card.
Came with Windows 7. Internet was working, downloaded Maverick, burnt CD.
Booted from CD, no ethernet, installed Maverick. no ethernet.
Rebooted, loaded fine, no ethernet.
Found another machine to troubleshoot. Cold booted after letting PC sit for a minute. Ethernet now works.
Ethernet was working for several days (no reboots in this time).
Ubuntu suddenly freezes (mouse moves but screen completely unresponsive). Attempted to kill/restart x server, no response. Had to hard shutdown PC
Rebooted machine, no ethernet.
Shut down machine, waited with power plugged off for several minutes, rebooted, no ethernet.
Repeat cold boot attempts several times, still no ethernet. !!
Current state : about to pull my hair out.
Please help with any suggestions !!
Thank you.

I've had some weird luck by loading up the BIOS setup and loading "optimized defaults". That seemed to help get my ethernet back to normal.

I have also encountered this problem. My PC contains an Asus P7P55D Pro motherboard with an integrated Realtek 8111/8168B PCi Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller. I have a dual boot setup with Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit and Ubuntu.
When I first built the PC, I installed Ubuntu 9.10 and everything seemed fine. I subsequently upgraded to 10.04 and the network was still usable at first. One day, I booted Ubuntu and the wired network was shown as not connected; there was no link light on the PC or switch either. The same patch cable/switch port worked fine for another PC. I rebooted the P7P55D PC into Windows and still had no network connection. I switched off the computer (unplugged mains) then restarted and Windows worked fine again. Booting back into Ubuntu made the problem recur.
I fitted a spare Intel 82557 PCI card and updated to Ubuntu 10.10 using this network interface. Unfortunately the problem with the Realtek interface is unchanged...

I just run the livecd of 10.10 without install and had the lan fail on booting windows.
The usual power off resolves.
Still means that installing Ubuntu at the moment is not an option.

This affects the 64-bit server 10.10 release as well. I will try the total power off and see what happens. Been without network for a couple of days now.
GordonSchumacher (eleccham) wrote : | #25 |
Maverick 32-bit on a D510MO exhibits this as well, as do MeeGo 1.1.80.x builds (kernel is likewise 2.6.35-based). I've got a pretty long "grungy" cable, which I suspected might have something to do with it.
The switch it's plugged into is a GbE switch. When I moved it to a port on my wireless AP, which has a 100Mb switch in it, it connected just fine. So I'm going to guess that if it is able to communicate with the switch well enough to detect GbE on the other side but not well enough to complete negotiation, then it dies completely; but if it never detects GbE at all and the cable is okay for 100Mb, then it works.
Hope that helps...

For me shutting down the system, unplugging the power supply, waiting a minute and then restarting solved the issue, at least by now.
I have Lucid Lynx 32 bit, kernel 2.6.32-26-generic, and the network adapter stopped working with no apparent reason, after a month or so of normal use (well actually a couple of strange system freezing happened).
The motherboard is an asus p7p55 LX and the card is detected as "RTL8111/8168" controller. Driver was the default one, r8169.
It is now Realtek's one, r8168, but installing it didn't work by itself (but I hope it will at least prevent the freezing issue).
I got the problem fixed only with unplug. Simple reboot didn't work, leaving the pc shut down for a day (but with the power cable still plugged) didn't work, a lot of other stuff didn't work... only after restart *and* unplugging I got the network working.
So, unplugging is worth trying.... fast and harmless, and it could solve. At least for a while.

ATI Radeon HD 5750 1024MB

Before installation of Ubuntu 10.10, ethernet worked fine in Windows 7 Professional 64bit.
After installation of Ubuntu 10.10 64bit release, ethernet interface stopped working.
After reboot to Windows 7 it said: no ethernet cable connected.
Plug out + plug in of network cable did not help, neither disable + enable network card.
Only solution is to power off and pull the power cable, wait a few minutes and pray.
Is someone of the developers working on this issue?
I have no access to the PC, so I cannot provide any further diagnostic info.

I am another person with this problem. Motherboard is Gigabyte GIGABYTE GA-G41MT-D3. I am running Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit. Network chip is Realtek RTL8111D. PC will boot up and networking works for about 2 minutes. It then fails but comes back of its own accord if left for 5 or 10 minutes. Networking will then work ok for a while and then have failures of several minutes every now and again. When it fails I cannot ping either by IP number or by URL however bittorrent continues to work ok. I was amazed by that!
The kernel is 2.6.35-24-generic. I was running the R8169 kernel module but have now changed it to the R8168 module. That did no good. When I boot the machine into Windows networking is perfect. Disconnecting power and ethernet followed by a reboot does not work for me. Booting off a Knoppix 6.2 CD and the networking is perfect. The Knoppix kernel is 2.6.32.6 and the module is R8169. Since the R8169 module did not work for me with the Ubuntu kernel I suspect that the kernel may be where the problem is.

Have/had the same problem with wife's HP. Ended up warrantying the box the first time it happened as it killed it in 10.4 and Win 7. Second time, I noticed it happened when I tried to configure power saving in 10.4. When I undid the power saving, it came back. This last time there had been no power saving changes done, but there were updates applied. Since she is good about applying them when they are available, they just got done. I did not check the logs to see what was patched though. Same thing happened. Dead NIC in both kubuntu and windows through reboots and power cycles (windows is hardly ever used).
Unplugging the power supply on the motherboard for a few minutes brought it back to life.

Have the same bug:
Motherboard - Asus P7P55D, Core i7 860.
Dual boot - Windows 7 Pro 64 bit + Ubuntu 10.04.
Network work well in Windows and work at first boot on Ubuntu. After reboot network doesn't work neither Windows nor Ubuntu. Only motherboard reset (take off the jumper) helps.
Also, exactly the same behaviour on last Fedora and Parted Magic.

This issue persists on 32 bit Maverick as of 26 Apr 2011. ASRock M3A770DE motherboard (onboard RTL8111/8168B). As with others, powering down fully for a minute and restarting fixed the issue. So far this one's hit twice in the few months we've had the computer in question.

Searching for a solution with my R8169 networkcard I did read some threads with this kind of problem. The solution seem to be to set in Windows Wake On Lan to on and the settings Let Windows shutdown the card to off. Then after one cold boot and disconnecting the cable for about 20 seconds it should work again.

I have this bug too, but a bit different. Loaded 10.10 on Asus eeeBox EB1007. No wired LAN connection after boot. Wireless is OK. I can solve this by unplugging LAN cable just for a second and replug it back in. I can also get a connection by doing sudo ifconfig eth0 down, and then sudo ifconfig eth0 up. I tried 10.04 LiveCD, and 9.10. Same problem. Put XP on the EB1007 box. No problem connecting. Today, I installed 11.04 on the box. Same problem. Can you please help? ASUS cannot, even though they used to be a Linux advocate! I have their original eeePC running Atheros. I like this little EB1007, Again, could you please figure out a fix? It would be OK with a bash script to do the ifconfig routine, but have not been able to get it to work, for the command is owned by root. I tried sudoers, but no joy. Thanks, donde

A Cold boot should fix the problem. Take out power cable and the battery.
Wait a minute.

now I found a workaround through this link:

I've had this problem too on using an Asus P7P55D-E LX motherboard with Realtek RTL8111, a Core i5 processor, and an Nvidia GTX460 graphics card. After exchanging every single component except the CPU, graphics card, and memory sticks, ethernet now mostly behaves decently but I still have the freezing problems mentioned by some above. Ive reported those separately as bug #720863. It would be good if people with the same problem could check out that bug and add yourself as affected or otherwise give feedback because nothing seems to happen.

I confirm this problem on Dell XPS with a RTL8168B/8111B card in 64-bit Natty Narwhal (11.04). After some network activity (e.g. copying a large file), it will lock up the machine with only a flashing CAPS lock light and no other activity requiring a hard reset by pressing and holding the power button. The kernel is loading the r8169 driver. Strangely, this was not an issue running 10.10 on the same machine. Doing a vanilla reinstall did nothing to resolve this issue. Tehre were no BIOS settings that could be changed on my system.
I also confirm that it is solved by installing the Realtek r8168 proprietary driver from the Realtek website (and then running sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-`uname -r`). Hope this helps someone else. This really was a pain to diagnose.

but anytime i can boot back into linux and everything works well!

Updating the BIOS solved the cold reboot issues for me a long time ago.
Motherboard: Asus P7P55D
BIOS ver. which supposedly fixed it: 2003.
Machine do seem to lock up under heavy traffic in Ubuntu 11.10 though, but I am not sure if this is due to a recently introduced bug, or a change in network usage.

This bug affects Ubuntu 10.10, Maverick Meerkat. Maverick has reached end-of-life and is no longer supported, so I am closing the bugtask for Maverick. Please upgrade to a newer version of Ubuntu.

This bug is still present @ ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Once booting in ubuntu kills the adapter for every OS (ubunut, Windows XP, Windows 7). Shutting down for more than 15 minutes seems to get it running again. All problems as described by the first post. I found this entry by google, so is there any new bug report for 12.04?

Hello, I've tested two configurations to find out how to resolve this problem, but I'm not succeeded, here they are :
Ubuntu configuration 1 :
- Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS,
- software RAID 1 mirror - installed with alternate CD
- mother board Asus p8z77-v LX
- processor intel i3
Ubuntu configuration 2 :
- Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS,
- fake RAID 1 mirror - installed with Desktop CD
- mother board Asus p8z77-v LX
- processor intel i3
Description of problem :
While putting in to the suspend or hibernate mode working well, when trying to resume from one of this states the system starts :
- rebooting 3 times then it takes 5 or 10 minutes to boot up the system
- after such painful booting the wire LAN disappears! I'have to activate LAN and then reboot the system normally to make LAN reappear;
Thank you in advance for your help.
P.S. I've got the same Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS on my laptop as server (but no raid 1 on it) the suspend and hibernate resume works without problem;

Hi Philipp,
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? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http:// cdimage. ubuntu. com/releases/ .
If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications- >Accessories- >Terminal) . It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.
apport-collect -p linux 573259
Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/KernelMainl ineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs- upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs- upstream- testing' text. Please let us know your results.
Thanks in advance.
