Ubuntu Intrepid Alpha 4
For some reason networking doesn't work when you've set Vmware Workstation up to use a Bridged network.
Networking DOES work when instead you use a Nat configuration in Vmware.
In both cases, Network Manager doesn't recognize any networking device. This may be due to the proprietary nature of the virtual Vmware networking device (vmxnet). |

Networking DOES work when instead you use a Nat configuration in Vmware.
In both cases, Network Manager doesn't recognize any networking device. This may be due to the proprietary nature of the virtual Vmware networking device (vmxnet).
***Workaround***
Manually setup networking:
1. Manually add the pcnet32 kernel module ( #sudo modprobe pcnet32 )
2. Start the eth0 interface ( #sudo ifconfig eth0 up )
3. Restart networking ( #sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart )
4. Request DHCP address ( #sudo dhc_client )
5. Test connection and interupt command with CTRL-C ( #ping google.com) |

I can confirm this bug in kernel 2.6.24-21-generic using KVM.
Also the mentioned workaround worked for me. |
