Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager


Wireless WPA2 Enterprise (802.11x) works fine in an eduroam setting. But trying 
the same authentication for a wired connection it fails in some configuration 
step as stated in the log below. It's the exact same authentication information 
for either connection.
This is for the karmic version or the network-manager ppa. Both show the same 
error
