Because HP installed the “Desktop” version of Ubuntu, as opposed to the “Server” version, this won’t quite work.

The only difference is the “Desktop” version uses NetworkManager by default. To stop this:

  1. sudo /etc/init.d/NetworkManager stop

This will kill network manager, and use traditional networking for which the instructions above hold true.
