[Bug 37578] crash when configuring unconfigured eth1

[Asraniel]

Public bug reported:

Affects: kdebase kcontrol (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
When i tried to activate my eth1, which is a ethernet network connection, it always crashed kcontrol when i tried to configure the details of the connection.
i got this error in the console(kcontrol was launched with sudo kcontrol):

KCrash: Application 'kcontrol' crashing...
Warning: connect() failed: : Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
KCrash cannot reach kdeinit, launching directly.
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified

drkonqi: cannot connect to X server :0.0

after that i activated it manualy in the file /etc/network/interfaces with this line:
iface eth1 inet dhcp

now kcontrol can configure the interface and does not crash anymore.
