Package: network-manager
Version: 0.6.4-6
Severity: important
NM fails to find my wired network device. nm-tool simply displays this
error message:
State: disconnected
print_devices(): didn't get a reply from NetworkManager.
There are no available network devices.
My network is configured like this:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
This is the lspci output:
00:12.0 Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6102 [Rhine-II]
(rev 78)
Could this be related to bug 366373 (the problem with carrier detection)?

Ok, closing this bug then.
Guess it would be a good idea to print a debug message, when a device is
configured in /e/n/i and NM therefore ignores it.
I'll add that to my TODO list.
Cheers,
Michael
