I did a Network Upgrade</div><div>from 11.04 to 11.10, and when it completed (with no apparent problems) somehow</div><div>my network interface is hosed. The chipset is RTL8168C/8111C. Now it claims</div><div>"cable unplugged". So obviously all the network configuration tools are greyed</div><div>out, since it claims it can't even detect the ethernet carrier. But obviously it's there,</div><div>since I completed a successful network upgrade via that very cable scant moments</div><div>before. Any ideas for things to look at? I didn't find anything like it by searching</div><div>the internet (as best I could without a working NIC
