Could you please disable gdm for the time being, so that you can login on the console. I assume you have no network connection at this point, bug please double check. As you are using LDAP/NIS (please attach you configuration, nsswich.conf etc. and if you use nscd/nslcd). Then stop the running network-manager instance and start it with "NetworkManager --no-daemon" and attach the output. Does NM successfully acquire an IP address via DHCP? If not, what happens if you disable LDAP/NIS in your nsswitch configuration (will probably also require a restart of dbus). -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
