If that worked, I wouldn't have filed a bugreport ;) I just tried it again to reproduce the problem - same error. I configured ppp0 in NM as my internet connection and configured eth0 with a manual (local v4) IP. Then I looked at the status of the network by using the graphical gnome-nettool.
When I select eth0 as my connection when clicking on NMs icon, everything works. When I select ppp0 instead, I get an internet connection but the local eth0 only gets an IPv6 assigned (I didn't configure any IPv6 adresses) and it doesn't get the IPv4 I assigned to the connection. Obviously, Ican't access my IPv4 LAN with an IPv6-adress only. I attached 2 ifconfig-files, one with ppp0 enabled, one with eth0 ** Attachment added: "ifconfig" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19271470/ifconfig -- [Intrepid] network-manager only allows to use either eth0 or ppp0 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
