Public bug reported: This occurs in both Ubuntu and Xubuntu Gutsy, both fresh installs.
I have a manual script to connect to my ISP, which does ifup eth0, calls pptp, etc. On Gutsy, my /etc/network/interfaces file was created to be auto lo iface lo inet loopback which is missing the critical line iface eth0 inet dhcp only after adding this does ifup eth0 etc. work. This issue was not present on Feisty, Edgy or Dapper. (On Feisty I had to disable NetworkManager, which I also tried on Gutsy, but it didn't fix things.) ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- eth0 missing in (/etc/network/) interfaces file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159123 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
