Thank you for testing Xubuntu Gutsy! What does the command ifconfig and dmesg say? I know it is a live cd and therefore it may be very difficult for you to put this information here. I just want to know if ifconfig shows at least a device called "eth0". Look if it is there. If it is not, then look what the command dmesg says in a terminal. Look for messages like this: [ 39.057016] eth0: RealTek RTL8139 at 0xd4858000, 00:50:ba:b4:81:68, IRQ 10 [ 39.057023] eth0: Identified 8139 chip type 'RTL-8139C'
This means my network adaptor is found. Do you maybe use a DSL-connection? then you may want to configure your connection with the command "pppoeconf" To open a terminal press on the middle button of your mouse and select terminal. ** Changed in: ubuntu Assignee: (unassigned) => vonHalenbach (lustik) Status: New => In Progress ** Summary changed: - [Gusty] can't get my wired connection to work with Xubuntu + [Gutsy] can't get my wired connection to work with Xubuntu ** Tags added: beta gutsy -- [Gutsy] can't get my wired connection to work with Xubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/146990 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
