Public bug reported:
The file `/usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/10-globally-managed-devices.conf`
included with this package (installed via apt in 19.10 environment) contains
the line:
```
unmanaged-devices=*,except:type:wifi,except:type:gsm,except:type:cdma
```
In my system (laptop with no native ethernet), this results in the inability to
easily use USB/ethernet adapters. After manually modifying:
```
unmanaged-devices=*,except:type:wifi,except:type:gsm,except:type:cdma,except:type:ethernet
```
the USB/ethernet adapter is detected and configured automatically by
NetworkManager
** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
