The output when the cable is plugged into the USB replicator is the same, except for that new entry:
eth6:avahi Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr f4:ff:ff:ff:20:81 inet adr:169.254.9.0 Bcast:169.254.255.255 Masque:255.255.0.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 And indeed the Ethernet interface is now "up" for Network Manager. The ":avahi" suffix reminds me that I restored the Avahi service yesterday to try network discovery. Would it be mandatory to support Ethernet-over-USB adapters? But as the IP is the DHCP fallback one, the connexion is useless. -- [hardy] Ethernet port of USB replicator no longer working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/183124 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
