Package: network-manager
Version: 0.6.6-1
Severity: normal
Please describe the problem:
When I boot Debian under Microsoft VirtualPC 2007 or WindowsServer Hyper-V,
the network is "disconnected".
The network interface is has PCI id =1011:0009
"Digital Equipment Corporation DECchip 21140 [FasterNet]"
The Linux kernel module to handle it is "tulip".
Steps to reproduce:
1. Boot Debian (stable or Testing) under VirtualPC 2007 or Hyper-V
2a. Open a session in a console, type "ifconfig" : The interface
isn't configured
3a. Type "ifup eth0" : the interface get configured.
or
2b. Open a session under gnome : the NM applet says the link is down.
(click on the icon, the "Wired Networking" isn't ticked in !).
3b. Click on the NM applet, tick-in "Wired Networking" : the interface
get configured.
Actual results:
We notice that the interface is down.
Expected results:
The interface should be up and configured.
Does this happen every time?
Yes.
Under Debian stable (kernel 2.6.18 + NM 0.6.4) and Debian Testing
(kernel 2.6.25 + NM 0.6.6)
I've opened a bug upstream :
