Thank you, Alexander I did a new installation of Xubuntu Intrepid 8.10 using the desktop CD. Even though Network Manager still won't allow me to make any changes, after following your suggestion and making the changes manually to /etc/network/interfaces, I was able to connect. I am using static IP addresses, and could leave Network Manager installed.
