Bump.
I messed with it a few hours again yesterday, but no luck so far. Anybody else can confirm/deny that they have this problem as well? I guess this is either a bug with NetworkManager or a compatibility issue with the hardware. It would be really nice to let Network Manager handle the connections, but it seems the facility for changing the MAC address is broken.
I'm powered by the e1000e driver. lshw gives me this:
Code:
$ lshw -C net
