Ethernet not functioning

[gabemorr]

So I installed UNR on my brand new (fully hardware functional) HP Mini 110 1030NR. Everything works fine, including the wireless, but the ethenet doesn't work. Seeing as I have a wired network it would be nice to have ethernet working.

Any ideas?

Could you open an Applications-->Accessories-->Terminal and type:

sudo lshw -C network

and paste the output in your next post.

The original poster hasn't responded, but I will. I also have an HP Mini 110 with an ethernet port that does not work under UNR 9.04.

As I mentioned in thread 1201415, the ethernet port does work for HP Mini Mi, HP's flavor of Ubuntu. It uses the atl1e driver (ver. 1.0.0.6, for kernel 2.6.24-22-lpia). However, simply modprobe'ing that module in UNR 9.04 did not work. Nor did adding it to /etc/modules and rebooting. Under UNR 9.04, I'm currently running kernel 2.6.13-28-generic and version 1.0.0.7-NAPI of the atl1e module.

The output of "lshw -C network" is:

I can get other information (lspci, modinfo) for both the non-functioning UNR 9.04 or the functioning HP Mini Mi if needed.

One (and only one) bump.

I also have a new HP mini 110 1030NR running Ubuntu 9.04 Netbook Remix and all the updates and it also doesn't have functional ethernet. Wifi works fine, sounds just like the previous posters' problem. Here's some requested info:

My Mini 110 ethernet doesn't work, either, i can't copy/paste, because i don't have wireless connection here and i'm using another PC.

[PhilMize]

Same as the guys above me, ethernet is not working.

A (recent?) lead from the hardware support pages references this solution which seems to work for me. It does require compiling the driver. I'll reproduce those instructions with a few updates/modifications here:

Retrieve AR81Family-linux-v1.0.0.10.tar.gz from http://partner.atheros.com/Drivers.aspx. You'll find a link to it under the heading "AR81Family Linux Driver". You'll have to accept the Atheros EULA.

Compile, install, and load the module. From the command line, go to the directory where you saved the package and issue these commands:

tar -xvzf AR81Family-linux-v1.0.0.10.tar.gz
cd src
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe atl1e

This fixed it. Awesome!

Guys

Can you help me with this please I have done some research on GOOGLE but could not find any solution for that

gzip: stdin: decompression OK, trailing garbage ignored
src/Makefile
src/Module.symvers
src/modules.order
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

Cheers
