I was running on 3.0.6 kernel, when after a problem with the phone |
2 |
line internet was down for 3 weeks, when it came back up I had no |
3 |
network. I upgraded to 3.7.9 and had a network device but I had to |
4 |
bring it up manually: ifconfig eth0 up, then run dhcp, and that worked |
5 |
for a month. |

Today had a powerfailure, after rebooting, no /dev/eth*: |
8 |
ifconfig -a |
9 |
gives enp2s0, lo, sit0 |

I downloaded the r8168 driver from realtek (my if is RTL811/8168B), |
12 |
installed modprobe'd it, |
13 |
but still no eth device. |

I'm really mystified, as there were no kernel changes, it should have |
16 |
rebooted with the network if it had it before. |
