If so, can you downgrade it to the previous version? To be honest, this looks like a kernel problem to me. NetworkManager successfully started, then it looks like something immediately told it to shut down again -- probably whatever it was that told the rest of the system to shut down. Unfortunately, the syslog doesn't say what that was. :-( (And I've always found NM's syslog messages to be quite inscrutable.) I would try downgrading the kernel, if you can, and see if that fixes it. If so, you get to file a bug report. :-) You might try asking on the Ubuntu IRC channel (#ubuntu on irc.freenode.net, I think), or the Ubuntu support forums. I'm sorry I can't help more, but that's all I can think of. --Dale -- "Duct tape is like the Force.
