Hi, Is it ok to remove the current NM with SPM and install a .deb from: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/i386/network-manager-pptp/download
...to get back online?

Thanks,
Leon.

Ah, sorry for the misunderstanding.

Ok, I killed the NetworkManager and ran...

leke leke-desktop:~$ sudo NM_SERIAL_DEBUG=1 NM_PPP_DEBUG=1 /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon
NetworkManager: <info> starting...

NetworkManager: <info> (eth0): new Ethernet device (driver: 'via-rhine')
NetworkManager: <info> (eth0): exported as /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/net_00_0b_6a_07_89_36
NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB2): ignoring due to lack of mobile broadband capabilties
NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB1): ignoring due to lack of mobile broadband capabilties
NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB0): ignoring due to lack of mobile broadband capabilties
NetworkManager: <info> (ttyS0): ignoring due to lack of mobile broadband capabilties
NetworkManager: <info> (eth0): now unmanaged

What do you think?
Thanks.
