Description Akihiro Yoshino 2003-09-17 04:29:07 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.78 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U)

Description of problem:
When I launched neat to configure my network device, a divece was shown like;
Inactive eth0 eth0 Ethernet
So, I selected it and clicked "Activate" button,  then got warning saying " Cannot activate network device eth0". Then it  was deleted 
successfully using "delete" button.
Next, tried to add new device using "Add" button and got message "Exception Occured" below:

Can you please first upgrade to the erratum and retry, if this fixes your problem?
