Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] NetworkManager bug in Lubuntu?

Update: both Ubuntu and Lubuntu installed from their respective 10.04 CDs do not have any eth0-related entries in /etc/network/interfaces. Lubuntu installed from 10.04 mini iso does have the usual: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp which causes NetworkManager to not manage eth0 by default. Looks

That's pretty awesome timing, I was pretty much all set to make a new partition and have a 'play' with the mini-iso :-) I'll put it on to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp/MinimalInstall 'as is', it can always be edited if the need arises. Thanks, Phill. On Tue, Aug 3, 2010 at

Yorvik, that 'solution' does not fix the default behavior of NM to not manage interfaces defined in /etc/network/interfaces. I think it may enable the whole NM management system when and if it is somehow turned off (screwed up?) but this is not the original case. Regards! Mikhail On Tue, Aug

Hi Mikhail, Is the proposed change *gksudo leafpad /etc/network/interfaces* and edit it from *auto eth0* *iface eth0 inet dhcp* to *auto lo* *iface lo inet loopback* Save, quit reboot? Alternatively, if you have a different working solution, would you email it me so I can update the wiki page.

Yorvyk, for me the problem reproduces on all three Lubuntu installations I have at hand: an old P4-based desktop system and two notebooks, ThinkPad X61 and Lenovo G450. As Julien noticed, this is a known misbehavior of NetworkManager, documented on the Debian wiki

Hi, that certainly leaves me a bit puzzled, as the mini-iso requires a wired connection for it to work !! I'll set up a new partition and try it again (I'm the author of instructions you're referring to). You are the first person to say that you are having a problem when using them. Regards,

Hi, list. Lubuntu Lucid installed from mini.iso seems to be affected by a bug in NetworkManager (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=530024): the wired network interface is not managed by NetworkManager by default. Does anyone know if this also happens when installing from Lubuntu
