<p>Dimitris: </p> <hr /> <div>In my case, on a X60 (1709-CTO) it seems that the latest BIOS update (2.14, dated October 2007 on lenovo.com) has regressed this issue. It was not present before but it definitely showed up now.<br /> <br /> Applying the lenovo ethtool-based patch seems to have fixed it, i.e. it has survived a couple of reboots. Before applying the ethtool patch, I could make this go away by toggling the network adapter in the BIOS config: Disable adapter, save and exit, reenter config, enable adapter, save and exit. However the fix was only &quot;temporary&quot; in that it didn't survive more than one reboot.<br /> <br /> If anyone can point me to the appropriate contact/channel/mailing list where Lenovo can be re-reminded of this I'd appreciate it.</div>
