I haven't spent much time running 7.10 so I can't comment for sure on the
behaviour there, but my understanding is that if you set a static IP
address in /etc/network/interfaces, your networking will still work, but
you won't get the wireless selection and VPN abilities of NetworkManager.

Is this not the case? Did the NM in gutsy change to support this, and if
so, is this referenced anywhere onlinE?
