It sounds like you configured your network manually somehow so NM will ignore it. Take a look at /etc/network/interfaces, it should have nothing but auto <interface name> For example mine looks like: # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface auto eth0 #iface eth0 inet dhcp _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
