I have been getting this with Feisty, Hardy and Intrepid. The nic is not recognised at install time. It is an old isa ne2000. I add the module name and options to /etc/modules then configure /etc/network/interfaces to use dhcp. When the machine boots it has network connectivity. Like Tessa reported I have a problem with programs saying they are in offline mode even though the network is working.
/etc/network/interfaces auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp I uninstall network manager and no more problems. -- network-manager should not set offline mode when it manages no device https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/82335 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to knetworkmanager in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
