hi,

in recent versions of the Debian installer, the /etc/network/interfaces 
gets a stanza by default like

allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp

this is, as far as I can tell, more or less the same as 'auto eth1', and 
so NetworkManager should manage the interface.

the workaround is to change 'allow-hotplug' to 'auto', but it would be 
much smoother if the user didn't have to do so.
