[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#755202: My Fix in Gentoo

[Keivan Moradi]

I had the same problem in Gentoo linux.
I am by no means a network expert.
I had this warning in NM log.

<warn>      error in connection
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/.keep_net-misc_networkmanager-0:
invalid connection: connection.type: property is missing

So I removed the the following file
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/.keep_net-misc_networkmanager-0

I also had this file
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/eth0

with this content:

[ethernet]
mac-address=10:C3:7B:AC:3B:23

[connection]
id=Wired
uuid=593aa2f2-5673-401a-823b-519d68e4dde2
type=ethernet

[ipv6]
method=ignore

[ipv4]
method=auto
may-fail=false


So I changed its name to "Wired" as it was the id.

The r8169 kernel module was also buggy in my case so that it could not get
an IP address when I was working in my workplace. So I switched to r8168
module.

Everything looks OK now. I hope this info help you also.
