Package: network-manager
Version: 0.6.6-1
Severity: serious
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
NetworkManager hangs indefinitely on boot after initializing an ethernet
interface while a link beat is detected - regardless of device module. The
only solution to fix it is to actually kill the service:
killall -9 NetworkManager && /etc/init.d/NetworkManager start
Sorry for the lack of technical logs, this bug frustrated me to the point by
which I simply purged the packages (network-manager and
network-manager-kde). Fortunately, this bug is always reproducible for me
across very diverse environments: a desktop using the forcedeth module for
ethernet, a compaq presario 1500 laptop (uses intel modules), and a really
old dell latitude ls series.
To reproduce, set network-manager to run on the runlevel that X would be on
and reboot with an rj45 connection hot to a simple home router (netgear,
linksys, d-link, the usual).

I'm going to close this bug report. For one, I was not able to reproduce the
problem when disabling syslog. Also the network-manager init script has the
necessary Should-Start: $syslog entry to at least ensure it is run at the
correct time during boot.
If this is still a problem for you, please reopen the bug report or let me know.
