[Bug 132434] Re: knetworkmanager after congiguring interface manually, kcmshell takes 100% cpu, also not able to go back to configure automatically

[charles.figura]

I've seen this as well.  I've got a situation where I need to configure as a static IP on one network that I use my laptop on, but need to have the 'automatic' configuration on several others.
I've managed to set up the static IP has a manual configuration, but knetwork manager does not allow (for some reason) any way to reset to automatic.

Here's my workaround:
I copied my /etc/network/interfaces and commented out ALL of the eth1 or eth0 configuration lines and saved the result as /etc/network/clearinterfaces

Then I created a script in my bin directory that just did a 
sudo cp /etc/network/clearinterfaces /etc/network/interfaces
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

whenever I want to switch to the automatic mode.  This seems to work,
but it's rather kludgy.
