Public bug reported:
There is an external LAN connected device which I could always connect
with using networkmanager in the past. It has a static IP, and there is
a router between the computer and the device.
I had a profile for this device in my cable bound connections in the
networkmanager GUI. When I updated Intrepid a few weeks ago, I could not
use it any more for no obvious reason.
Replaced the 8.04 install by a completely new fresh Ubuntu 9.04. Made up
a new profile. At first, all worked, but when I updated a few days ago,
the connection could not be established any more.
Strange thing is: When I right click the networkmanager icon, I can see
it, but when I left click the icon, only "Autoeth0" as the only cable
bound connection is offered (plus a WLAN in reach).
