Hi,
sorry for the long post...
Well, I have done a fresh install of Flight5:
1. at startup, the network is unavailable:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:30:1B:B1:54:79

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
2. I use System Settings > Network Settings > Administrator Mode
3. The eth0 interface is shown as Disabled, and there is no default gateway
4. If I click "Enable interface", it stays disabled (in fact, it is "Enabled"
about 0.1 seconds, and then "Disabled" again ; but the "Enable interface"
button is now disactivated and the "Disable interface" is acivated, unless I
click again on the eth0 line)
5. In the route tab, I enter the default gateway 192.168.1.1, and then click
apply.
6. In the Network interfaces tab, I click on "Enable interface" and "Apply" (by
the way, the "Reloading Network" window is hidden in the background). The
interface is now enabled, and I can browse the internet.
7. I reboot, and then the network is unavailable:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:30:1B:B1:54:79
inet6 addr: fe80::230:1bff:feb1:5479/64 Scope:Link

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ route

8. I check in System Settings > Network Settings, and the default gateway field
is blank. If I do as in steps 5 & 6, it is ok.
9. I reboot. The network is unavailable. I enable it by typing:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.2
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo route add default gw 192.168.1.1
10. If I look in System Settings > Network Settings, everything is ok.
11. I reboot, the network is unavailable.
12. After an "apt-get dist-upgrade" and a reboot, the network is working!
13. But after the next reboot, it does exactly as before. But now, after having
set the default gateway in System Settings, if I click on "Enable interface",
I have the following message : "Could not change device state - KDE Control
Module There was an error changing the device's state. You will have to do
it manually".
Hope this helps!
