Actually, I've "completely" disabled Network manager from starting up in any runlevel:
$ ls -la /etc/rc?.d/*Manag* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Jan 13 2009 /etc/rc2.d/K01S28NetworkManager -> ../init.d/NetworkManager lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Jan 13 2009 /etc/rc3.d/K01S28NetworkManager -> ../init.d/NetworkManager lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Jan 13 2009 /etc/rc4.d/K01S28NetworkManager -> ../init.d/NetworkManager lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Jan 13 2009 /etc/rc5.d/K01S28NetworkManager -> ../init.d/NetworkManager This allows me to get on the 'Net via the command line and run X-clients. Odd that the patch is supposed to have fixed this problem in 8.10, yet, I and apparently others are still experiencing it. Do I not have the patched version installed? -- NM 0.7 sets hostname to localhost.localdomain instead of what is in /etc/hostname https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/276253 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
