On booting, nm is not bringing up my wired connection. When I
login,
nm-applet is not starting. I have to start it manually, then

eth0.
nm-applet shows selection 'auto ethernet'. Last time I
manually
selected 'wired connection', but it set itself back to
'auto' (whatever
that means - automatically not work maybe?)
FWIW, I'm seeing exactly this as well. If I unplug the ethernet cable
and re-plug it in, NM will activate it, otherwise, it ignores the
ethernet and defaults to wireless.
I'm seeing exactly the same behavior on my home system after a reboot.It
does NOT happen if I only logoff and then log back on. This system
doesn't have a wireless adapter, so when it happens I simply have no
connectivity at all until selecting "eth0 Auto".
Hope that helps chase things down!
