Under linux 2.6.35-28-generic my "auto" wired network connection intermittently fails to be established. Gnome Network Manager shows the connecting animation for some time before giving up. The issue persists for that session, but can be sometimes fixed by rebooting (multiple times).
Running "dhclient" command fails similarly with time out.
This problem doesn't occur under Trisquel 4.0 (Linux 2.6.32-29) or when manually booting Linux 2.6.32-29 under Trisquel 4.5. It's a fairly mature chipset that has worked smoothly for several years.
It does also occur when booting directly to the installation/live CD.

What happens if you statically set the IP information via IFCONFIG? Does it keep a stable connection or still drop?
I tried the following running `ifconfig eth0 netmask 255.255.255.0 10.1.1.10 up`. This adds an "inet addr" line to the output of `ifconfig`, but still get "Destination Host Unreachable" when trying to ping my router.
Also tried adding the following lines to /etc/network/interfaces and then running `ifup eth0`. Same "Destination Host Unreachable" message.
iface eth0 inet static
address 10.1.1.10
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.1.1.1
(My default /etc/network/interfaces only has "auto lo" and "iface lo inet loopback" lines.)
I've also tested again with 4.5.1 live cd.
This problem is resolved in Trisquel 5.0. Closing the issue.
