Please post your /etc/network/interfaces - I suspect that this file might be
wrong/corrupted (caused by kcontrol crash) and this means that automatic IP
acquisition (dhclient) is not performed.

On my system, I have something like this on the config file:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

# The secondary network interface
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp

This tells startup scripts which network interfaces to bring up
automatically ("auto" line) and to use dhcp.
Note: this config file is from Kubuntu Dapper, therefore it may be different
for 5.10 (Breezy).

Regards,
Luka
