11 years later ... well done ubuntu!
Still works in 2023!
thanks to kanhaiya-2000's comment this still works on Ubuntu 22.04 in 2023!
still works! I wonder if it will work in another 12 years

believe me it'll
This didn't help rather installing the 'netplan.io' package fixed this issue (Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS).
How did I get into this scenario?
Well, I tried 'apt auto-remove python3', and all of a sudden my machine rebooted and landed on the tty1 prompt, couldn't start ubuntu-desktop!
How did I get back to ubuntu-desktop?
Ran 'sudo apt install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop' and got back the GUI. But then the ethernet was not working, 'lshw -c network' showed my ethernet interface 'enp43s0' was unmanaged!
sudo apt install netplan.io
sudo apt install network-manager
sudo cat /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state
[main]
NetworkingEnabled=true
WirelessEnabled=true
WWANEnabled=true
in my case, no need to delete NetworkManager.state
I cannot believe this thing still works in 2024...
11 Years later, your contribution is still saving lives.
It worked for me on Ubuntu 22.04.
