[Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre <mathieu.tl@xxxxxxxxx>]

There has been an update since this package was released which should
workaround that particular issue for most cases. Please see if you're
still having issue with your setup (once you've made sure you're using
the most up to date packages as available in oneiric-updates):

network-manager (0.9.1.90-0ubuntu5) oneiric-proposed; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/fix_reading_intlist-like_ssids_965d586.patch: Fix numeric
    SSIDs parsing; if there is no semicolon, except the file is in new format
    (so just a valid, all-nums SSID rather than a integer list). (LP: #874328)
  * debian/patches/lp862134_resolv_conf_updates.patch: don't update routing
    and DNS for unmanaged devices or devices transitioning to unmanaged; in an
    attempt to keep possibly correct resolv.conf contents and routes.
    (LP: #862134)


Then report back here if you're still having issues; for now I'll close this bug as Fix Released, even though there are some corner cases which may not work properly even with the patch above.

** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Network Manager overwriting /etc/resolv.conf with no information when
  static IP configured for ipv4

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  After a reboot, /etc/resolv.conf is blank and only contains the line

  # Generated by NetworkManager

  The computer is configured for a static IP address using (in XFCE)
  Settings -> Network Connections and contains a valid DNS entry.

  In order for the computer to access the internet, I must edit /etc/resolv.conf and insert
  nameserver 8.8.8.8
