Some more infos: My system is Kubuntu Feisty Fawn with all present updates. I'm using a static network connection with dhcp (eth1) and I have an unused connection (on eth0).
excerpt of /etc/network/interfaces auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp auto eth1 iface eth1 inet dhcp KNetworkmanager reports the dhcp configured interface as "wired online" (reverse translation from german) and the unused interface is greyed out. When I open the "Static connections" dialog I see eth0 with an avahi-ip (169.-range) and eth1 with a valid IP adress (from the dhcp server) That means everything is looking fine. Networking is all as it should be with and without NetworkManager running. The only glitch I have with nm is the umount problem on system shutdown. -- Unmount of remote CIFS shares fails with timeout on system shutdown https://launchpad.net/bugs/90795 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
