[Bug 309825] [NEW] Wired ethernet won't connect 8.10

[R. Gavilan]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-backports-modules-intrepid

I have just noticed that my wired internet connection will not connect in 8.10.  I have a Lenovo R61i laptop which I usually connect wirelessly. I took it upstairs to connect directly and it would not connect using the wired Lan connection. When I look at the available connections the wired "Auto eth0" is greyed out. When I go to system, preference, network connections the "Auto eth0" line says never. I upgraded to 8.10 when it came out and just noticed this problem. I had no problems with 8.04.
8.10, Kernel Linux 2.6.27-9 generic, Gnome 2.24.1
