[Bug 87941] Re: network-manager does not take into account static configurations *properly*

[Nicolas M]

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 82335 ***

You're right, more precisely, here is the behavior I've noticed for the
network settings (I use ifconfig to check the network setting changes):

- If I run the Network settings dialog by left clicking the NM Icon:
  . When changing from dhcp -> static: the static settings are not taken into account the first time I change them, but they are taken the second time only. However, after the first change (which does not get applied as seen in ifconfig), right click on the NM icon and select Network Information shows the modified static setting.
  . When changing from static -> dhcp: the change takes effect on the first change.

- If I run the Network settings dialog by the menu:
System/Administration/Network, the changes take effect on the first
change, in both cases, dhcp -> static and static -> dhcp.
