I am sorry that I cannot be more precise. That's right, it's explaing in http://wiki.debian.org/NetworkManager I have allow-hotplug eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces, so the wired network is still brought up if I boot into single user mode. Having managed=true in /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf means Network Manager will do the right thing and update the network status when plugging and unplugging my laptop. It's possible to both have your cake and eat it. :-) The new Network Manager version also seems to not drop the network connections any more when I log out or shutdown either. This means any network filesystems I have mounted don't have their connection whipped away from under them, which was causing long timeout delays during shutdown. :-) -- Tixy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: network-manager not connecting automatically anymore
I've made some progress: After I commented the following two lines mentioning eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces, network-manager works just as expected! allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp What should /etc/network/interfaces contain about eth0 if I'm using network-manager? Anything at all? Aside from these lines, there are only the following two concerning the loopback interface, are these needed? auto lo iface lo inet loopback godo go...@dobosevic.com writes: Looks like this problem http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2010/02/msg00700.html This is my answer after I fix my 2 laptops http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2010/02/msg00761.html Hm, doesn't look like the same thing to me: I am able to connect to the network, it's just not happening automatically.
