in my case, I can't include eth0 or eth1 _at all_. It doesn't actually matter if the one that's assigned to the wired interface is there or not, but I'm not using iftab, so my interfaces come up randomly, and as long as neither is in /etc/network/interfaces everything is working with NM (this is a recent improvement - for the last two months wireless hasn't worked with NM & Edgy). The word on the NM list is that you're right - it should work with an interface that specifies _only_ "inet dhcp" (but it doesn't for me), but it should also work with no mention of those interfaces at all. -- derek _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
