Is it possible to manually activate an eth0 connection?

Bas, sorry I forgot the dhcp sample from my own desktop configuration:
This most probably is not the ideal configuration for a mobile notebook
that potentially connects to different networks, but at least it should
get you started quickly.
/etc/network/interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
#===this is it===
I think this will be what you need to get into the Internet.
Actually I also have an additional bridge setup added to that file (for
virtualbox), so I am not 100 but this does not apply here.
regards
Eberhard
