[Bug 779040] Re: System hangs (solid) early during shutdown

[John Hunter]

Further: I am getting more evidence that the cause of the trouble lies in either Network Manager or Avahi.
Despite my efforts to persuade it otherwise, I can only get it to use DHCP (which makes life for the rest of
my home network very difficult!).  My last attempt was to edit  /etc/network/interfaces to add

auto eth0

iface eth0 inet static
   address 192.168.1.5
   netmask 255.255.254.0
   gateway 192.168.1.1

Now it hangs during the boot process, both normal boot and repair mode!

How do I disable the Network manager fungus and get to a state in which I can configure it to join an existing network?
