Reassign this back to network-manager then?

Title:
  Cannot resolve domain names if eth0 is in /etc/network/interfaces

Status in “resolvconf” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I installed two systems with Quantal via a preseed. After booting,
  neither of them could connect to the web. A workaround was to remove
  the eth0 section from /etc/network/interfaces (which the preseed
  added). This is the interfaces file before:

  auto lo
  iface lo inet loopback

  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet dhcp

  After restarting network-manager service it worked again immediately.

  It was also suggested that the state of resolv.conf on the system
  might be a problem:

  nameserver 209.6.3.210
  nameserver 127.0.0.1
  search lexenab

  Removing nameserver 127.0.0.1 and restarting networking/resolvconf and
  network-manager seemed to fix it.

  (having looked at the resolv.conf file after it worked again the
  127.0.0.1 is back, which is interesting)
