Binary package hint: gnome-network
I start up the Gutsy from CD with NO ethernet cable connected. Then I
use the Network applet to set the Wired connection using static IP
address. I click to apply changes and I plug in the ethernet cable.
The icon is signalising that I'm connetced to network, however not
really. ifconfig shows I have no IP address. I must do
/etc/init.d/networking restart and only then the network starts working.
