Re: NetworkManager bug in Lubuntu?

 

Hi Mikhail,

Is the proposed change

*gksudo leafpad /etc/network/interfaces*
and edit it from
*auto eth0*
*iface eth0 inet dhcp*
to
*auto lo*
*iface lo inet loopback*

Save, quit & reboot?
Alternatively, if you have a different working solution, would you email it
me so I can update the wiki page.

Thanks,

Phill.
