I would get rid of those two, and also make sure zeroconf is not 
installed as your search above can't show it.

You only need to edit one file, /etc/network/interfaces and my guess is 
your setup should just work like this:

---[ /etc/network/interfaces ]---

allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

---------------------------------

You can test before changing everything by running 'dhclient eth0' in a 
root terminal (but do shut-down network manager first).If you get a 
working connection then just go ahead with the changes. In case it 
doesn't work you can still do it with a "static" setup:

---[ /etc/network/interfaces ]---

allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 192.168.10.4
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        broadcast 192.168.10.255
        gateway 192.168.10.1
        dns-nameservers 192.168.10.1

--------------------------------

Regards,
Andrei
