Strange...

I am actually noticing that even an

ifconfig eth0 down

followed by an ifconfig eth0 up

kills my card.  After this sequence eththool -t reports FAIL, no link.

If I unplug the ethernet cable and replug it, the card starts working
again.

So it might not be network-manager to be completely to blame in the end,
but probably the network card (broadcom NetXtreme BCM5752) or its
drivers.

Still, I cannot see why killall nm-system-settings does touch it at all,
since from the documentation it should not.
