On a shiny new kubuntu 7.04, trying to run from cd as a live cd: Go in system-->administration-->network. Select wired connection-->proprieties, I select static ip and enter all the info for ip address and dns and gateway and apply. After I apply and exit, the network does not work, I check with ifconfig and see that the IP has reverted to a DHCP address of 192.168.0.25 and the info I entered is gone. I re-enter the gui tool and sure enough, it is all back to dhcp. If I use ifconfig eth0 x.x.67.242 etc... and route add commands, I can get the network to work. Also, as I am using a netmask/broadcast of 255.255.240.0/x.x.79.255 , I cannot easily get the gui tool to accept that. Also the dns settings are lost so I have to do things by ip address instead of name. I have used 6.06 and 6.10 on this same network, live from the cd without major issues, but 7.04 is broken in this area.
