Package: network-manager Version: 0.6.6-2 Severity: normal
Example 3 in the documentation at /usr/share/doc/network-manager/README.Debian says: iface wlan0 inet dhcp -> This device is *not* managed by NM because it is not set to "auto". To test this: I run: /etc/init.d/network-manager stop /etc/init.d/networking stop /etc/init.d/networking start wlan0 does not come up (ifconfig | grep wlan0 shows nothing) Then if I run /etc/init.d/network-manager start wlan0 does come up (ifconfig | grep wlan0 shows something). So either the documentation is wrong or it is a bug.
