The problem's popped up again. My system froze (kernel oops, video
driver unrelated to nm). After rebooting, it's back in that horrid
state where it brings up eth0 even with no cable plugged in.
Currently,
$ cat /sys/class/net/eth0/carrier
0
So no cable detected there. Why would nm bring up eth0 then?
Now I'm stuck back in the broken state I was originally reporting. All I
can do to workaround the problem is set the eth0 configuration to
manual. Rebooting doesn't help. (I don't know why it magically started
working correctly after I reported this bug this week).
Thanks,
Drew
