Today installed Qubes 3rd release, but no network connection. Spent hours
trying to fix it, but to no avail. Network card is recognized. I have two
cables connected, no WiFi. I try to put qubes on Dell poweredge, Intel Xeon e3,
8 GB RAM, Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet PCIe, two 1 TB harddrives. I used
option "Test and install" at installation, no error message. I have choosed
both harddisks at install, hope there is someway to configure the soft raid.
Before tried to install other Linux flavors before (Debian-8 and Fedora-23) and
none of them had any trouble connecting to the internet immediately (updates
downloaded during install). Maybe need to activate some more PCI devices.
What's the best I can do? Wait for the next release? Buy another machine? ;-)
Opened netvm terminal and checked the following things:
1. Does 'lspci' list your network adapter?
Yes, i've tried both debian-8 and fedora-23 both list the network cards.
2. Do you have interface detected (does 'ifconfig -a' contains en* device)?
No, none of them detect the interface using ifconfig.
3. Does kernel messages ('dmesg') contains some errors regarding network
device initialization?
No, there is no message regarding network at all.
4. Check if linux-firmware package is installed (rpm -q linux-firmware).
Yes it is installed.
