Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

Use case:
Laptop's X/GUI was broken due to alpha release of lucid
wanted to connect my laptop with desktop's extra NIC
Wanted to share desktop's upstream connection (eth0) with eth1, which on its 
part is connected with the laptop.

Opened network settings through nm-applet, edit "Auto eth1", set ipv4
settings to "shared to other computers."

notify-osd now goes haywire, reporting wired connection established and
wired connection disconnected in a endless loop.

Looking at ifconfig output, repeated many times on the command line,
does, sometimes for short periods 1 second or so, show that eth1 has a
10.x.x.x ip address, which is good I think because this would be
necessary for the NAT workings.

Disabling network connection with nm-applet does not stop notify-osd
from looping the same message over and over.
