@Rick: I am happy to hear that you managed to get resolvconf and network-manager reinstalled and your system unbricked.
Although it is usually the case that resolvconf and network-manager get installed and operate properly, it is possible that there is some bug that bites only in special circumstances which happen to obtain for you. The fact that you have *two* systems with the same problem suggests that there is some such bug. The problem is, there is not much we can do with that statement. What exactly is wrong with the systems and how did they get that way, and what caused them to be that way? In order to answer these questions we need your help. We will need you to reinstall Ubuntu 12.04 on at least one of the systems, carefully recording all the steps you take. And we will need you to tell us exactly what is wrong with the resulting installed system. And then we will need you to investigate the system and send us syslogs and such. If you are willing to do all this then please open a fresh new bug report. :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/989900 Title: Various people have a bunch of unrelated problems with name resolution in Ubuntu 12.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/989900/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
