resolvconf is not meant to be used "by hand", you have to add

nameservers 8.8.8.8

or whatever to /etc/network/interfaces
Note: "nameservers" (ending with s) is not a typo, because you can
specify several nameservers (three?) separated by spaces

Can you ping outside addresses (for example the nameserver itself) by
IP?

Please also show the output of 'ifconfig -a' after loading the modules
above.

Andrei

Only if you use (a.k.a. install) the resolvconf package. You can still
use /etc/resolv.conf, if you uninstall resolvconf and you are 100% sure
no other program is touching it (pppd, dhcp clients, ...).

Using resolvconf makes more sense to me even for static configs, since
you configure everything about the network in only one file
(/etc/network/interfaces).

The last Hungarian to say that to me - my father - took extreme umbrage if I
actually did so!!
