Description of problem:
If one sets ONBOOT=no in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and configures static IP networking using knetworkmanager, the user's settings are not applied to the system as expected.

It appears that NetworkManager is having trouble dealing with the IPv4
address configuration given it by knetworkmanager.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
knetworkmanager-0.7-0.8.20080926svn.fc10.i386
NetworkManager-0.7.0.99-3.fc10.i386

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Set ONBOOT=no in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
2.Use knetworkmanager to configure a static IP setup
3.Apply setup using knetworkmanager

Actual results:
No valid IPv4 configuration for eth0.

Expected results:
A valid IPv4 configuration for eth0 using the parameters I configured using knetworkmanager.

Workaround: Configure static IP networking using system-config-network,
and set ONBOOT=yes in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.
NetworkManager works fine with static IP configuration from
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.

Thanks for letting us know of this workaround.  Is this still an issue
with the latest KDE updates.  With kde4.2  knetworkmanager is no longer
a standalone package for fedora.  If this is still an issue please file
a bug report upstream at http://bugs.kde.org and add upstream info to
this report.

Since there are insufficient details provided in this report for us to
investigate the issue further, and we have not received feedback to the
information we have requested above, we will assume the problem was not
reproducible, or has been fixed in one of the updates we have released
for the reporter's distribution.

Users who have experienced this problem are encouraged to upgrade to the
latest update of their distribution, and if this issue turns out to
still be reproducible in the latest update, please reopen this bug with
additional information.

Closing as INSUFFICIENT_DATA.
