Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

Since the latest update I performed yesterday (Intrepid RC updates I
believe), networking has completely gone off. When I boot the system,
eth0 is up but dhcp request in not being made and hence am not assigned
an IP. Also, the Network Manager applet is not appearing on the
notification area.

I have to manually run dhclient to get an IP address and again manually
restart /etc/init.d/NetowrkManager, where the NM applet appears but
shows an exclamation icon and doesn't activate any of the menu items.

Also, the System > Administration > Network menu item is no more
available and hence I do not have a GUI way to configure my network
settings. Thus my networking experience wrt to wired networking is in a
pretty bad situation as of now, though am able to workaround by manually
running dhclient every time to get connected.

So far am having problems only with Wired network, as wireless was
working fine yesterday at home. Will check it again today and update.
