Further: I am getting more evidence that the cause of the trouble lies in either Network Manager or Avahi. Despite my efforts to persuade it otherwise, I can only get it to use DHCP (which makes life for the rest of my home network very difficult!). My last attempt was to edit /etc/network/interfaces to add
auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.5 netmask 255.255.254.0 gateway 192.168.1.1 Now it hangs during the boot process, both normal boot and repair mode! How do I disable the Network manager fungus and get to a state in which I can configure it to join an existing network?
