Disable dnsmasq in NetworkManager

I have recently converted my work desktop to Ubuntu 12.10. Most things were better, but I was seeing horrible DNS lag from dnsmasq. To disable it, I've done the following:

sudo vi /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
# comment out dns=dnsmasq
sudo restart network-manager

This will regenerate your resolv.conf and you'll see your DNS servers directly and not localhost.
