Public bug reported:

I have noticed that in Kubuntu/Kde is not possible to edit the "Auto
eth0" connection and, more important, is not possible to de-select its
"Connect automatically" item.

If I create a custom connection, ie for a static ip configuration, even if I 
select the "Connect automatically" item, after each reboot the "Auto eth0" 
profile takes priority over all other custom connections.
Seems that Kubuntu/Kde can only use Dhcp configuration at startup.

I have tested this issue with a 100% reproducibility in Kubuntu 9.10 and 10.04 
both in x86 and x86_64 version.
Ubuntu/Gnome doesn't have the problem and allow to edit correctly also the 
"Auto eth0" connection. (see #303068).

Thanks for your great work!
