[Bug 59690] Re: Static IP configuration doesn't adds the default route to the gateway

[frafu]

I have the same problem with knot 3 of edgy i386: it does not save the
gateway address when using the Networking pane.

Workaround that seems to work for me: Close the Networking pane and
don't open it anymore. Then add the following line to the corresponding
interface in the file /etc/network/interfaces

[code] 
gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
[/code]

Of course, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx has to be the address of the gateway.
