I've noticed that if I disconnect the ethernet cable from my 
de0 NIC, I no longer see the warning message about the cable
being unplugged. Also, when I plug it back in, I no longer
see the message about the UTP cable being plugged in.

Also, once disconnected, the ethernet port no longer works and 
the machine must be rebooted to restore functionality.
