|
| Posted below are some clues that may be helpful (or not)
|
| ./etc/network shows:
|
| /etc/network/if-pre-up.d
| /etc/network/if-down.d
| /etc/network/if-post-down.d
| /etc/network/if-up.d
| /etc/network/interfaces
|
| /etc/network/interfaces shows:
|
| auto lo
| iface lo inet loopback
| iface eth0 inet dhcp
| auto eth0
|
| /etc/networkmanager shows
| /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d
| /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/01ifupdown
|
| In /var/log/debug I found these lines
|
| May 6 10:46:35 mysticventures-laptop NetworkManager: <debug>
| [1210099595.477028] nm_hal_device_added(): New device added (hal udi is

|

| As always, thanks in advance for your help.
