Network Manager is supposed to bring up wired network connections at boot time. If this isn't happening for you, then that's either a bug in network-manager or a configuration problem of some sort. I would encourage you to file a bug report on network-manager about that issue.
I agree with you that this is not a good user experience, but your experience is certainly exceptional. Most users of NFS (including myself) have seen no such problem in karmic, aside from the warning that the NFS mounts are not yet available - messages which I believe are being suppressed in lucid. Again, the *attempt* to mount the NFS filesystems early is not itself an error; this is done for compatibility with systems where the network interface is brought up in the initramfs (e.g., for systems using NFS root), the only issue is the distracting message. -- retry remote devices when parent is ready after SIGUSR1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/470776 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
