Occasional problem with eth0 link down after booting

Hi,
Every so often after booting up the PC there is not any working network connection. Looking through the output of dmesg, I find "eth0 link down" messages. Not knowing a lot about networking lead me to resort to rebooting to resolve the problem, and rebooting does indeed resolve the problem. Today I discovered the post at  [url http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=117728] which suggests similar behaviour.
I played around with ifconfig and initially thought I was seeing the same behaviour, but believe I was mistaken. I can't actually confirm until it happens if my new found knowledge will actually resolve the problem without rebooting.
I'd like to try and track down the source of the problem, and either file a bug report or take some other (configuration) measure, but need help tracing it.
Hardware in question is: Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 01)
and I'm using the testing repository in Arch. Any help appreciated.
Cheers,
James.

I have the exact same problem and I have the exact same ethernet controller/chip.
I've not looked that much why it was doing this. Maybe auto-negotiation fail for I don't know which reason, maybe something else, hard to tell. I might try to investigate this a bit more next time it does me this.
That said, what I'm doing when I'm seeing that my eth0 has no carrier, I'm doing a "ip link set eth0 down", wait a few seconds, and then a "ip link set eth0 up", and then it's usually fine. Since I'm personally using static IP addresses, I also have to re-add the default route after that, i.e. a "ip route add default via 192.168.1.1" to be able to go out of my LAN again. This will be different if you are using DHCP.

    Sorry for the late reply. My email firewall has become a little over zealous & sent a lot of my emails straight to my junk email folder, so I have only just now discovered your reply in my junk mail folder.
    The only "don't open files exceeding xxx megabytes" instruction I can find in my Prefs, is in the Bridge Prefs for Thumbnails, & mine is set at 1000mb. The biggest files I handle are bigger than 200mb so I should be able to open a few, not just one.
    However, this doesn't explain why I can open a psd format file of 180mb, close it, but then can't open a RAW format file of only 26mb immediately after.
    I can open the RAW file only if I restart my computer - very annoying!
    However, thanks for the advice about the video card & memory.
    So, I'm still stuck as to what the issue is.

    Because it was on all of my 3 PC's with Vista and Windows 7 I believed it is because of changes on the phone which was working since one month without problems.
    It also was regardless if I connected via BlueTooth or USB.
    Anyhow, I started to deinstall SW on the phone which I installed last 2 days. but at the end I found the problem somewhere else:
    On the day when problem came up I sent via bluetooth from my PC a text file to the phone.
    This appeared in the Dialoge/Message listing like an SMS but the suite seem not to be able to handle it.
    When I deleted the message on the phone the suite was working well again!
    The weired thing was that even if I set the suite not to synchronize anything the error was generated which mean that it still scans some phone parts.
    This post should help Nokia to correct the problem and you to avoid it!
    Greetings
    Franz

    Same with my phone. Deleting SMSes helped. Thanks!

  • Is anyone experiencing problems with anchor links moving after updating to Muse 2014?

    I just happened to check my website and my CONTACT anchor link is not working. The image and contact info has moved to a different part of the page and I can't seem to get it to work properly. Here's the website: soleilnyc.com

    Yes, I have noticed the sucking more power issue.  We also can't connect to the iTunes store anymore on either ipad we own after the upgrade.  All the tips provided in the forums have not worked.  I hope Apple peeps are paying attention to this... they are losing money!!  I can't buy my stuff on iTunes, so I went to Amazon.com.

  • Problems with Dinamic Link between Premiere pro CC and After Effects CC

    I'm having serious problems with dinamic link between premiere pro and after effects, really serious problems that have 2 big projects in trouble (a documentary and a video clip) and I had to redo all the work pipeline to the consumer.
    The documentary for a spanish TV was made on CC 2014 and a video clip was made on CC. Both of them with a lot of after effects composition in the premiere pro timeline. Render freeze, a lot of playback issues, and many more problems... Until I decided to remove these links between premiere and after effects and render out all the after effects compositions one by one and insert as clips in premiere pro. 1 week working away with back and fourth.
    I've got a huge workstation:
    i7 4990
    32Gb ram
    GTX780 3gb
    256 gb system ssd
    2 Tb project storage
    *All my hardware and software are update.
    I know that a lot of folks are on the same huge problem and I want to ask everyone:
    How do you save this?
    What is your pipeline?
    Are there any solution?
    Best practice to use dinamic link in a huge project?
    Thanks,

    Thank You, Jim -
    Unfortunately that specifically did not work.
    Based on another comment sent to me, here is what did.
    In PProCC
    File > Adobe Dynamic Link > New After Effects Composition
    In AECC
    From that composition created from PPro, I imported the project (aep) initially created in AECC from another team member. Saved the file.
    Back in PProCC
    File > Adobe Dynamic Link > Import After Effects Composition
    Magic.

  • After Effects won't close/Problems with dynamic links

    When I quit After Effects the icon still shows up and it says that it is still open, even force quit will not work. Also having problems with dynamically linked files between after effects and Premiere pro. Rendering in Premiere doesn't work unless I go to AE, save the project, then go back to Premiere. I have OSX Mavericks 10.9.2, a late 2012 mac pro, and AE CC 12.2.1.5

    Kevin: would appreciate further thoughts on this.
    I am using Pr2014, version 8.0.0 I am using AE2014, version 13.0.2.3. When I was on earlier versions of each, I had no problem importing AE comps into Pr. I'd choose import in Pr, then select the AE project, then select the comp. But with my new and improved versions of AE and Pr, I keep getting "importer reported a generic error."
    I also tried to go the other way. I selected in Pr the clips I wanted to work on in AE, and then tried "replace with AE comp" but got the "generic error" message again..
    Finally, I attempted to create a Dynamic Link from Pr via the File menu, but with each of the options from there, I got "failed to connect to AE Dynamic Link"
    Any advice you can share, would be most welcome.

    I guess I should have asked for the "definitive" fix. I read several "fixes" but it seems no one knows if Apple has a definitive fix. Kind of like going into an Apple store and getting three different answers from three different reps. At least they are not rude and no, I don't have a problem searching the forum.

  • Mac shuts down after boot. Is it the logic board?

    mac shuts down after boot. Doesn't go beyond gray screen with apple.  Is it the logic board?
    I do not have the start up disks to safe boot or check the hardware.
    Any ideas what the problem is or is it junk?  It is 8 years old.

      Shutdown your machine.  Hold down the shift key.  Poweron.  Wait awhile Wait awhile while you harddrive
    is being checked.
        http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455
    I'd let the machine sit for awhile in open firmware & see if it stays alive.  Do a few prints.
    Sometimes if volumes don't appear in Startup Manager (what you get when you hold down the Option key at startup), you need to reset the Mac's PRAM, NVRAM, and Open Firmware. Shut down the Mac, then power it up, and before the screen lights up, quickly hold down the Command, Option, P, and R keys, until the Mac has chimed twice more after the powerup chime. Then, before the screen lights up, hold down Command-Option-O-F until the Open Firmware screen appears. Then enter these lines, pressing Return after each one:
    reset-nvram
    set-defaults
    reset-all
    "The reset-all command should restart your Mac. If so, you have successfully reset the Open Firmware settings."

  • I'm having problems with my internet connection after installing OS X Lion. Is this a known problem or just a local problem?

    I'm having problems with my internet connection after installing OS X Lion. Is this a known problem or just a local problem?
    After +/- 10 to 15min my connection is gone.
    Does anyone have a sollution?

    Lots of people are having the same problem, you're not the only one, belieeeeve me.
    Just Googling the problem gets you tons of people complaining about the same thing, SOMETHING is up with Lion what wasn't happening with Snow Leopard. i just bought a new Imac and it CAME with Lion, so i started experiencing this internet dropout immediately.
    It's been going on for the most of a year it looks like (at least by the dates from the threads i've been reading)
    So your best bet is to fiddle with the System Preferences and read what other people have used to make theirs work. i'm doing that myself right now.  I already posted  a similar thread last night trying to figure out why my connection kept on dropping, i got a reply which linked me to a site. i followed the instructions there, so far so good, but i'm just being cautiously optimistic.
    i'm gonna call Apple today and see if they've found anything, though seeing as this is a problem right out of the box there may not be an immediate solution. Good luck hunting for a solution :3

  • Problems with HP Probook 6475b after swiching computer off during full system restore

    Can anyone help?I have a problem with my HP Probook after it was accidently switched off during the running of an inbuilt recovery disc to restore the computer to its original instalation. When I switch it on now it goes straight to a message that says 'Windows is loading files' and after a short while comes up with a screen which says: Windows 7RECOVERY DISC***WARNING***You are about to erase your hard drive. click the greencheck box to proceed. Performing this action will restorethe computer back to it's original Windows installaltion there is the choice of three check boxes - one green with a tick, one red with a cross and one c:\ When I click the green box after about 5 seconds  there is a dialogue box entitled ' Restore Error Message'and in the box it states Error 1, with a box to click that says 'ok' If I click the ok box it returns back to the same message that Windows is loading files and goes through the same loop.I cannot get past this point. If I click the c:\  box it goes to  a black dialogue box which has the following: Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7600]X=\windows\system32> If I put sfc/scannow the message is as follows: There is a system repair pending which requires reboot to complete.  Restart Windows and run sfc again Can anyone advise how I can get out of this 'Error 1' loop and complete the system restore?   

    I do have a backup of the files, but the biggest issues come with the computer shutting down. I try to save frequently, but it makes it very tedious when I have to wait for the computer to reload, relaunch photoshop and redo my work. These frequent interruptions are hurting my productivity.

  • Problem with Rescue and Recovery after installing Norton Internet Security 2010

    Hi all.
    It's my first time in this forum.
    I have a problem, with Rescue and Recovery, after installing Norton Internet Security 2010 on my T43.
    The message I get it:
    "Rescue and Recovery is unable to back up the file 'C:\Documents and settings\all Users\Application Data\ Norton\ 00000082\00000109\000003c1\cltMLS1.bat' Because the file is either corrupted or being used by another application. Please close any application that could be using the file.
    I tried to close the Norton but I couldn't find how.
    Tanks

    Hi and welcome to the forum,
    the reason for this situation is, that the antivir files are protected from being modified.
    This is the reason, why this file cannot be backed up. I assume, that you would get much more such messages, as there are surelly multiple files files, that are protected like this.
    So the solution is to block folders from being archived. Please start RnR application and in the configuration set this folder as the excluded one.
    This will skip the backup of this file and will fix your situation.
    Please let me know, if you have covered this.
    Cheers
