Bug#604474:
Package: general
Severity: normal
/etc/network/interfaces:
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
Ok, if this is the intended behaviour of Network Manager (0.8.1), but it is
misleading. I had a look at the Network Manager (0.8) in Ubuntu 10.04 and it
does show the connection listed in /etc/network/interfaces as "auto eth0". And
if the connection is established the Network Manager symbol changes to
"connected".
So did the Ubuntu-developers tweak the way that the Network Manager is working?
