Ubuntu 8.04

GNU/Linux (was also actual with all older kernels from 24-16)
Network Monitor Applet
I connect to the Internet via ADSL router set in routing mode. When I select
eth0 in Network Monitor dropdown menu and click "configure" it asks for a sudo
password and after then says "The interface does not exist. Check that it is
correctly typed and that it is correctly supported by your system." It worked
fine in 7.10 and 7.04
I am pretty sure that it DOES exist as it's the only one i have. And so does
ifconfig say.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0f:fe:1b:4c:83
inet addr:192.168.1.2 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

Interface is still configureable through Network Settings. Current properties
are
Roaming Mode - not enabled
Static IP configuration:
IP address 192.168.1.2
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Gateway address 192.168.1.1
though changing them does not help.
