I've had the same problem on my father's PC after an upgrade from Feisty -> Gutsy. I've tried several different /etc/network/interfaces configurations and this is the only one I've found that starts the ppp connection on boot:
auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto dsl-provider iface dsl-provider inet ppp pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf provider dsl-provider auto eth0 iface eth0 inet manual I don't know how I landed on this as the first couple times I ran pppoeconf after the upgrade I was getting some strange entries in there: auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth1 #iface eth1 inet dhcp auto eth2 #iface eth2 inet dhcp auto ath0 #iface ath0 inet dhcp auto wlan0 #iface wlan0 inet dhcp auto dsl-provider iface dsl-provider inet ppp #pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf provider dsl-provider auto eth0 #iface eth0 inet dhcp iface eth0 inet manual Given that I can recreate on my dad's DSL setup, let me know if there's anything I can do to provide more information. -- pppoe connection over NetworkManager 0.6 managed ethernet device doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
