I haven't spent much time running 7.10 so I can't comment for sure on the behaviour there, but my understanding is that if you set a static IP address in /etc/network/interfaces, your networking will still work, but you won't get the wireless selection and VPN abilities of NetworkManager.
Is this not the case? Did the NM in gutsy change to support this, and if so, is this referenced anywhere onlinE? -- Can't use static ip address with network-manager (and thus no VPN connections menu for static users) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/5364 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
