Furthermore, it seems to get in the way of other interfaces such as wifi, meaning that if you're regularly using a wifi, every time a new "eth0" interface kicks in you lose connectivity. To give in idea, currently my laptop has 9 bogus "eth0" interfaces, in addition to the "right" one (i.e., "ifupdown (eth0)" and another static one I've configured). I haven't yet understood when exactly network-manager adds a new one, but at each resume for suspend I lose connectivity, but not only. For instance, since the last resume (~1 hour ago) I had to manually disable a bogus eth0 interface at least 3 times. As you can imagine, this is really getting in the way of using my computer productively --- hence my severity tweaking. If you've ideas on how I can help you debug the problem, let me know.
