[Bug 82335] Re: network-manager should not set offline mode when it manages no device

[James]

I have been getting this with Feisty, Hardy and Intrepid. The nic is not
recognised at install time. It is an old isa ne2000. I add the module
name and options to /etc/modules then configure /etc/network/interfaces
to use dhcp. When the machine boots it has network connectivity. Like
Tessa reported I have a problem with programs saying they are in offline
mode even though the network is working.

/etc/network/interfaces
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

I uninstall network manager and no more problems.
