Static IP configuration still doesn't work as default in Ubuntu Feisty final if network-manager is used. Problem still left the same, like I described in this comment: https://bugs.launchpad.net/baltix/+bug/5364/comments/22

Shortly - try to boot from Live CD ant to set static IP address, like I described in comment above. After setting static IP you need to deactivate an interface and activate it again, only then static IP configuration starts work:

[..]
2. enter static IP, netmask, gateway and clicked on "OK" button;
3. when I clicked on "OK" button then some progress bar in network settings dialog was displayed for a while, but internet connection wasn't activated when progress bar window dissapers, look at ifconfig output:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:16:36:A7:71:DB
          inet6 addr: fe80::216:36ff:fea7:71db/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

4. then I clicked on the checkbox near the "Wired connection" (turned off "Wired connection"), and, after several seconds, clicked on the checkbox near the "Wired connection" again, and only then my "Wired connection" with static IP started to work, look at ifconfig output:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:16:36:A7:71:DB
          inet addr:192.168.0.66 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::216:36ff:fea7:71db/64 Scope:Link
