Hi Adrian,
There is some info in /etc/network/interfaces:
jeroen@debian:~$ cat /etc/network/interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug enP2p36s15f0
iface enP2p36s15f0 inet dhcp
# This is an autoconfigured IPv6 interface
iface enP2p36s15f0 inet6 auto
I can't get network-manager to work (I tried commenting out the
enP2p36s15f0 entries in /etc/network/interface. With the above
configurreation I can however manually force it to accept a connection
by issuing a
sudo ifup enP2p36s15f0
It then remembers this and each time I turn on the computer, the device
is configured.
I can live with this but I don't understand why network-manager can no
longer configure this device.

Then you most likely have that ethernet interface configured in
/etc/network/interfaces
which is why network-manager ignores it.
If you want to be able to manage a network device with
network-manager, it must not
be mentioned anywhere below /etc/network/*.
