Well ... usually NM doesnt add a auto connection if there is a valid
connection. It doesnt do that here at least. 

It would be much more helpful if you could say what doesnt work and
what the symptoms are instead of saying just doesnt work ... which
doesnt help me at all.

 I'm giving up, it's easier to set up the network using the old
 /etc/network/interfaces

Could you please not put comments without any content in bug
reports. that makes the bugs unreadable and will make things become

rename should work. just remove the auto thing afterwards. you cannot
save auto connections without renaming atm ... especially when using
system settings

Did you try to rename the (auto) connection or create a new one and
set that to auto connect?

Do you have system settings enabled or not in the connection editor?

you _can_ do that. just dont modify the ifupdown connection, but

 Should I file a new bug regarding the 'read-only' issue?
 

no. ifupdown is read-only. You can still create new connections and
set them as system ... which would then be managed by the keyfile
plugin - which also is installed by default.

If you are configuring your network in /etc/network/interfaces and
have managed=false in /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf then
you will experience that behaviour. We will fix that for final.

 
 Things are pretty hosed.

At best try to disable your configurations in /etc/network/interfaces
and see if things work better in intrepid for you.

 
 I've found a work-around in Firefox so that I don't have to explicitly
 turn off Work Offline (set toolkit.networkmanager.disable to true), and
 I can do that manually in Liferea. But Pidgin has no obvious setting.
 

Yes, that option exists. We will fix the issue for all setups that
have unmanaged devices.

 I upgraded from 8.04 to Intrepid this morning. No way to make NM work.
 I tried all the hints above, none solved. I had problems both with NM and 
 /etc/network/interfaces interaction, and /etc/resolv.conf.
 Disabling a (static) eth0 from interfaces, made NM work, except no resolver 
 could be used, I had to change them by hand in resolv.conf. At boot time, NM 
 clears the file.
 Solution: uninstalled NM and returned to the old static interfaces and 
 resolv.conf files.
 

in managed=true mode you need dns-nameservers x.y.z.0 in your
interfaces file.

If you remove the configurations from interfaces, you can configure
DNS and static ip in the network manager connection editor since 0.7.

Yes, I if you have configurations in /etc/network/interfaces and dont
want NM to manage your devices (e.g. managed=true in
/etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf), you will for now
experience this offline bug. Try managed=true and restart (with your
configuration enabled again) otherwise stick to managed=false and just
remove things from /etc/network/interfaces, just like you did.

 This after using static IP since Ubuntu 5.10.
 
 I removed all four files after searching in Synaptic Package Manager for
 Network Manager. That seems to allow you to use /etc/network/interfaces

You could try the experiemental ifupdown plugin. just append ,ifupdown
to the plugins= line in /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf
and restart your system.

This should NM honour not-too-fancy /etc/network/interfaces
