I would get rid of those two, and also make sure zeroconf is not
installed as your search above can't show it.

You only need to edit one file, /etc/network/interfaces and my guess is
your setup should just work like this:
---[ /etc/network/interfaces ]---
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
---------------------------------
You can test before changing everything by running 'dhclient eth0' in a
root terminal (but do shut-down network manager first).If you get a
working connection then just go ahead with the changes. In case it
doesn't work you can still do it with a "static" setup:
---[ /etc/network/interfaces ]---
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.10.4
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.10.255
gateway 192.168.10.1
dns-nameservers 192.168.10.1
--------------------------------
