My dell laptop E6510 had its motherboard replaced (as it turned out, for |
| 2 |
no good reason) and now the wired ethernet fails. |

ajglap gottlieb # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart |
| 5 |
* Bringing up interface eth0 |
| 6 |
* ERROR: interface eth0 does not exist |
| 7 |
* Ensure that you have loaded the correct kernel module for your hardware |
| 8 |
* ERROR: net.eth0 failed to start |

I am hoping it is some wrong setting in the bios, but the only one I see |
| 11 |
says the ethernet can be disabled enabled enabled (with pxe) |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I tried both of the enabled variants with the same outcome. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I don't think I changed the kernel during that time, but I did try two |
| 16 |
older kernels; again with no change. I believe I have the correct |
| 17 |
driver built into the kernel |
