You can ignore my previous post; there is a typo in arpping (arping is
correct).

Anyway, I installed arping package and that broke my notebook
connectivity (network manager offered only bluetooth HW but  refused to
control WiFi or ETH hardware. When I tried to configure networks from
Unity setting, there was an error:

The system network services are not compatible with this version

I fixed this by uninstalling arping package and force reinstall network-
manger.

This was bad bug, it cost me more than an hour to fix my notebook.

Another really bad bug is disabling WiFi card when you "disable" WiFi in
Network Manager. You can disable, it is easy but it is really difficult
to reenable it; WiFI is dead even in Windows... Command rfkill can
address this issue but it is tricky, you have to try it again and
again... BTW, notebook is HP NC4200.
