** Description changed:
I just installed and dist-upgrade'ed Jaunty alpha-2 and discovered my
on-board ethernet was not working. With my previous OS (gutsy) it was
using the forcedeth kernel module, and it is doing so now too. I have
tried my normal dhcp settings (via /etc/network/interfaces and
NetworkManager) and setting it static (via /etc/network/interfaces).
When set with dhcp, it never receives a dhcp offer and when set static
it is not able to send or receive any packets through that connection.
I took a spare usb 802.11g nic and plugged it in. Within 20 seconds it
was initialized and connected to my home wifi without problem.
I am not a kernel/hardware/networking expert, but below are a few things
I could thing of that could be helpful.
