I am using ubuntu gutsy.

Kernel details :

2.6.22-14-generic

Lan card details :

DFE-538TX 10/100 Ethernet Adapter
RTL8139 Ethernet chipset

While booting, if the LAN wire is not connected and I connect it
later, the network does not get activated.

If the LAN wire is connected during the boot process and I remove and
reconnect the wire later on - it works.

ps : sorry i dont know where to report bugs..
