Good morning colleagues,
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I have this gateway running
ubuntu 12.04 that has been working well for a couple of months but
yesterday,I got to office and its DLINK PCI ethernet card was down. I
restarted the server and the interface came up but six hours later it did
the same thing. I restarted it again but this time it didnt come up. I
entered "sudo ifconfig eth1 up" but it said device not found. I then did an
"lshw -c network" and it shows that that device is disabled plus its
logical name has changed from eth1 to eth2. Any help is appreciated. By the
way,I opened the machine up,made sure the card was firm in its slot and
reset the bios but all that didnt help either. The output for the two
command is pasted below
root@(none):~# ifconfig eth1 up
eth1: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
root@(none):~# ping www.yahoo.com
ping: unknown host www.yahoo.com
