Description Juergen Weigert 2008-01-21 15:07:42 UTC

This is a lenovo x60 laptop.
installed with SuSE 10.3 and regular online updates.

Intel 82573L Gigabit Ethernet Controller. 
It pauses ca 40 seconds at 57%, activation stage,
then prints 'Device activated'

Afterwards the config is as before, e.g. IP-Addr 169.254.203.159
and I have no connectivity.

Switching to wlan WPA-Test works as expected.

see attached /var/log/messages excerpt.

NM tries to get IP configuration from DHCP server and when there's no reply, it times out and assigns a zeroconf address. Can you get a dhcp address using ifup?

Comment 5 Martin Jedamzik 2008-03-25 12:09:16 UTC

(In reply to comment #4 from Tambet Ingo)

using ifup works

Comment 6 Juergen Weigert 2008-03-25 21:45:02 UTC

ifup did not help here.

Comment 7 Juergen Weigert 2008-03-26 11:51:32 UTC

Did some more testing. Looks like a driver issue now:

modprobe after power-on without cable plugged in:

e1000: 0000:02:00.0: e1000_probe: The NVM Checksum Is Not Valid
ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:02:00.0 disabled
e1000: probe of 0000:02:00.0 failed with error -5


modprobe while cable plugged in:

Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - version 7.6.5-NAPI
Copyright (c) 1999-2007 Intel Corporation.
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:00.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 20
PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:02:00.0 to 64
e1000: 0000:02:00.0: e1000_probe: (PCI Express:2.5Gb/s:Width x1) 00:16:d3:ba:da:47
e1000: eth0: e1000_probe: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection


May also be related to suspend/resume in between ....

Comment 10 Tambet Ingo 2008-11-17 09:03:58 UTC

Does this problem still occur in 11.0 or 11.1 betas?

Comment 11 Juergen Weigert 2008-11-17 11:53:40 UTC

No longer an issue.
Networkmanager in 11.1beta5 brings up wired network perfectly well.
Instead, I am suffering from networkmanager not bringing up wireless.
See bug#445114

Comment 12 Tambet Ingo 2008-11-17 12:08:46 UTC

Thanks! I'll add a comment to 445114.
