Have the same problem: My computer has got 2 regular network cards and a wifi card. Of the regular cards, one uses DHCP and the other has a static NIC. In Edgy, NetworkManager let me choose between the DHCP card or a wifi connection and thus not touching the static card. It worked like a charm. In Feisty, NetworkManager shows all 3 options and blocks setting the IP address of the static card at boot or enabling it by switching to it in GNOME. This renders it useless. NetworkManager was supposed to disregard connections configured manually in the interfaces file but apparently it no longer does. This makes it a critical issue for me, forcing me to manually disable NetworkManager and finding a new wifi roaming solution.
Required solution: 1. automatically enable static NICs as was done before! 2. either have NetworkManager keep its hands off static networks or have it allow multiple active network connections at the same time (or preferently enable both solutions!) -- Can't configure IP addr's on multiple NICs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94068 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
