Just want to add that I do not have a static IP address, but a static configuration like in the original report. It seems like network-manager wrongly wants to take control of all interfaces with dhcp and auto, even if I have configured wireless-essid and wireless-key for it (and network-manager does not work with my kind of wifi card).
I've checked src/backends/NetworkManagerDebian.c and indeed, my interface is not blacklisted by nm_system_device_get_disabled. -- network-manager breaks static configuration https://launchpad.net/bugs/92299 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
