My /etc/network/interfaces contains:

My /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf contains:

managed=false

I would expect this to mean that Network-Manager would not touch my wlan0
interface. Nevertheless, if I run "ifup wlan0", then I can get no connection to
the network. This is an excerpt of my dmesg, which shows that a connection is
made and then immediately dropped again, for some reason (=3?):

If I kill network-manager, then I can connect to the network without any
problems. So for some reason, the "managed=false" option does not work. Since
network-manager is started by default, this is pretty annoying.
