Here's what I've done:
- Right click on knetworkmanager icon, click "manual configuration"
- Configure eth0 to have static IP address (was previously set to dhcp)
   Now knetworkmanager no longer has eth0 disabled in the list of
interfaces, and my interfaces file looks like this:
  [...]
  iface eth0 inet static
  address 192.168.0.11
  netmask 255.255.255.0
  gateway 192.168.0.1
- If I then go back and configure for DHCP, the interface is still
disabled in knetworkmanager.  If I remove the relevant line in the
interfaces file, the interface is still disabled in knetworkmanager,
and I see no obvious way to get it enabled again. In fact, the KDE
network control module is no longer able to enable this interface
either, so I am forced to configure it manually on the command line.

I'd suggest either giving networkmanager an obvious way to explicitly
take back control of the interface (leaving the interface available in
the list of interfaces would be sufficient) or removing the "manual
configuration" option which just causes things to break in KDE.
