Public bug reported:

See Bug #505310.

In the course of trying to find out why choice of DVI port should affect
the ability of 9.10 to boot, I was asked to run 'apport-collect -p xorg
505310'.  All I got was the message 'unable to find server at
edge.launchpad.net.'

I was then asked to run 'ifconfig' and got:

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1d:09:0c:75:1f
          inet6 addr: fe80::21d:9ff:fe0c:751f/64 Scope:Link

          RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:492 (492.0 B)
          Interrupt:17

          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0

          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)

When I changed DVI outlets (9.10 loaded normally) and then ran ifconfig,
this is what I got:

t...@ted-desktop:~$ ifconfig

Somehow changing the DVI outlet is affecting how the network installs!
