"I'd say this is a network-manager rather than an applet problem since nm-tool cannot report any working interfaces."
Well, I guess it depends. The earlier comment seems to imply that the problem is not with network-manager, but with the contents of /etc/network/interfaces. It says that removing that file then using knetworkmanager to set up the interface again will fix the problem (presumably by putting something different in /etc/network/interfaces and handling the static config some other way). I don't have knetworkmanager. My point is that for me it's the Gnome applet, not me, that's setting up /etc/network/interfaces. I don't know how the Ubuntu designers intended this all to work. It could go either way. If the root of the error is indeed what we've been discussing (that network-manager can't handle a static entry in /etc/network/interfaces), then either network-manager needs to be fixed so that it _can_ handle that, or the Ubuntu-standard configuration tools need to set up the system in a way that network-manager can handle. *shrug* I don't know which it is. I just wanted to chime in, because it was beginning to look like the bug was going to get set aside with the assumption that it only happens when somebody hand-edits /etc/network/interfaces.
