Title:
Network Manager, device not managed
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: network-manager
Binary package hint: network-manager
I'm using a wired network.
After upgrading to Intrepid from Hardy, I noticed that the Network
Manager had a little red x mark on it indicating that it was not
detecting a network, and the "Wired" tab didn't list any connections.
However the network was working normally, so I ignored it temporarily
concentrating on continuing the upgrade to Jaunty and hoping that it
will be solved then.
After upgrading to Jaunty the issue persisted; similar to what's
described at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1109585
Like what is described in the above thread, changing "false" in
[ifupdown]
managed=false
in /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf to "true" solved it and
the connection is detected in NM.
However output of lspci | grep Ethernet is:
00:0c.0 Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6105/VT6106S
[Rhine-III] (rev 86)
and output of sudo lshw -C network is:

when in fact my NIC is D-Link DFE-530TX PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter and
was being detected as such in Hardy; i.e. before the upgrade to
Intrepid.
