My Recent Ubuntu 10.10 update recommended that i remove 4 programs, one of which was my network manager. Because this is gone i can no longer access the internet. The connection logo is no longer in the top-right corner either.
Any help would be much appreciated,
Thanks alot,
Carson M

you can install it again using synaptic package manager ot
apt-get install network-manager
or you can configure you network settings in /etc/network/interfaces
#example
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.105
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1
dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
Hope this helps

Did you physically remove network-manager or did you see the old version being removed at the end of the update?
You can check by running this command in the terminal:apt-get policy network-manager
If nothing comes up you can install it again using the instructions Swapnil gave you. Although, I'm wondering what kind up update would ask for the removal of network-manager.0 -
Thanks A lot for the Help,
When i entered that in, it replied, "E: Invalid operation policy".
Does that mean it's completely removed?0 -
Sorry, you must need permissions to run that command. Try using "sudo" to set permissions. That is:
sudo apt-get policy network-manager
I haven't run a Debian based distro in a couple of years and I'm getting rusty on my apt-get's.0 -
Thanks for Helping,
I tried using the Synaptic approach by getting the network-manager off of the Ubuntu CD but wasnt sure how to get it. I also tried your second approach:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
address 192.168.104.161
netmask 255.255.252.0
gateway 192,168,104,1
I wasnt sure on how to get the DNS Servers through another computer.
Am i supposed to run the ppoeconf command after this?0 -
Thanks for the help,
It still says the same thing about and "Invalid Operation Policy"
I dont think that the policy exists seeing as how it was deleted.0 -
You can find the DNS server by typing sudo nslookup, then type "--help" at the prompt. It will give you the DNS server associated with you network. Make sure that you use one DNS nameserver.0
