Please note the following in my original report:
I noticed the bug #847782 and removed the "auto eth0" entry from my
/etc/network/interfaces. Unfortunately that did not change anything,
it still hangs forever.
Also in my comment #1:
- I am using wired interface (eth0) with no defined configuration.
It makes no difference if my network cable is plugged in or not.
I wiped my installation and replaced it with Xubuntu as soon as I
realized that oneiric standard desktop installation does not offer
the "Classic Ubuntu" GUI experience any more. Thus I can not
reproduce / test any more.
