Got to reply myslef, but the problem is fixed now, though it seems there is a bug in networkmanager anyway. Basically beacuse of I am using archlinux, I have to put "!" in front of the interface name in the /etc/rc.conf. It looks looks like this: INTERFACES=(lo !eth0 !ath). This have been already done before I reported the problem. Thing is that I was expecting that putting that ! is enough for NM to take control over the interface. I later found out that it is not and I also had to hash-out the interface definition that was there for eth0 (eth0="eth0 10.1.1.35 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.1.1.255"), otherwise NM would set only these ^^^ parameters for eth0 without trying dhcp; hence the missing route gateway. I was not aware that NM keeps track on a distro-specific network configuration and is somewhat actually buggy in case of archlinux. IMHO it should only be aware of the "!" in front of the INTERFACES array and not care about the other parameters. -- Regards, Dawid Wróbel mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
