Description Julien HENRY 2011-04-11 07:35:55 UTC 
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:2.0.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0

When I start up my laptop with power cable unplugged, I am not able to connect to network. In messages log I can see this output repeating indefinitly:
Apr  4 20:24:18 xxx kernel: [ 1907.151069] jme: Disable RX engine timeout
Apr  4 20:24:18 xxx kernel: [ 1907.151907] jme 0000:03:00.0: eth0: Link is down
Apr  4 20:24:21 xxx kernel: [ 1910.199325] jme 0000:03:00.0: eth0: Link is up at ANed: 1000 Mbps, Full-Duplex, MDI

Module seems to be loaded, but I am not able to get an IP address (dhcpclient will timeout).

Everything works fine when I start the laptop with AC power.

# uname -a
Linux xxx 2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2011-02-21 10:34:10 +0100 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Unplug AC power
2.Start OpenSUSE
3.ifconfig -> no ip assigned

With the coming release of openSUSE 12.2, openSUSE kernel developers are focusing their efforts there. Reports against openSUSE 11.4 and prior will not get the attention needed to resolve them before openSUSE 12.2 is release and openSUSE 11.4 becomes unmaintained.

Please re-test with openSUSE 12.1 or openSUSE RC2+ and re-open with an updated Product if you still encounter your issue.

We apologize for this issue not getting the attention it deserves but we are focusing our resources in the area where they will have the most impact for our users.  We're working hard to make openSUSE 12.2 the best openSUSE release yet!
