Hello all,

can anyone confirm the status of this issue in current Squeeze ? I also
had this problem some months ago but I ended up installing Lenny
(because of other reasons too)

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=530024

.... or has anyone been able to safelly overcome the issue without any
side impacts... :)

thank you

Joao

Mmm, if the bug is that ethernet cards are not detected/recognized by
default by NM, yes, the "problem" is still there, at least for me.

(not really a "problem" because I never use NM :-P)

Side note: ethernet card is fully available/operative, just NM detects
nothing.

Greetings,

My connection comes up at boot and that's all I care about. The fact
that it's not available to Network Manager doesn't worry me.

Maybe it should, though.... :-)

I wonder if this is why there are some many problems with Evolution 2.30
breaking. From those threads, it seems that Evolution is looking to
Network Manager and, if the interface isn't managed, Evolution assumes
there is no network. At least, that's what I took as the gist of those
threads - John

I don't use Evo, but from what you say, it seems highly likely that
Network Manager's bug is the problem.
