Network Manager is perfectly capable of using a static IP.
Run these commands:
Code:
sudo dhclient
sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
nm-applet
The first gets you an internet connection using a dynamic IP, the second gets Network Manager back, the third will run Network Manager applet. Go to the new applet on your panel and right-click it, and then go to Edit Connections. Under "IPv4 Settings" tab, choose Static and set up your static IP address.
I try to treat the cause, not the symptom. I avoid the terminal in instructions, unless it's easier or necessary. My instructions will work within the Ubuntu system, instead of breaking or subverting it. Those are the three guarantees to the helpee.
