In network-manager I can set up my Ethernet (eth0) connection to connect to the local network and my ppp0e (ppp0) connection to the internet. When I click on network-manager, I only have radio-buttons to select the desired "wired connection" which only allows me to EITHER start eth0 OR ppp0. When I'm connected to the internet, I can't access the LAN and vice-versa. The ony solution for me right now is to use pppoeconf and configure the eth0-connection via config file, which of course breaks network- manager. What I am asking for is simple: Allow the use of more than just one "wired connection" in network-manager (ditch the radio buttons and make them "multiple choice"?) here's my etc/network/interfaces: (comments were made by me for better readability here, they're not in the file itself) ##BEGIN interfaces auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto dsl-provider iface dsl-provider inet ppp pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf provider dsl-provider auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 ##END interfaces System is 8.10 with all the latest updates, network-manager is: network-manager: Installiert: 0.7~~svn20081018t105859-0ubuntu1 Kandidat: 0.7~~svn20081018t105859-0ubuntu1 Versions-Tabelle: *** 0.7~~svn20081018t105859-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://at.archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/network-manager/+bug/290639/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
