[SOLVED] NIVIDIA GeForce GT435M 10/100/1000 - Lost Net Access'

Hi,

OK, let's take it step by step. You copied the file to a directory on Ubuntu. How did you do that (which user, file manager or terminal) and where did you copy it? Then you opened a terminal, right? And in the terminal you cd into the directory where the tar file is located, correct? So, if the tar file got extracted you'll have a directory e1000e-1.2.20 inside the directory where you extracted the tar file. Next, you'll have to cd into that directory and next the src directory like this:

Code:

cd e1000e-1.2.20/src

In which part of the above did you do different?

Kind regards,

Eric

It's on the home directory now

lowrider@lowrider-desktop:~/e1000e-1.2.20$

Hi,

And you have a src subdirectory in that one? What error do you get when you run:

Code:

cd src

Kind regards,

Eric

lowrider@lowrider-desktop:~/e1000e-1.2.20/src$

Hei,

I finally got internet connection after downloading the
drivers through a usb flash drive. However i still need
to do the same process and install the drivers everytime i reboot.

I could use any help.

Hello,

The problem you're encountering that you have to redo the process; actually you only need to load the kernel module to get your NIC working, no need to make install again; can be avoided by following the steps indicated in the README file (told you that's an important file

). This is what's relevant from that README:

Quote:

Additional Configurations
=========================

Configuring the Driver on Different Distributions
-------------------------------------------------
Configuring a network driver to load properly when the system is started
is distribution dependent. Typically, the configuration process involves
adding an alias line to /etc/modules.conf or /etc/modprobe.conf as well
as editing other system startup scripts and/or configuration files. Many
popular Linux distributions ship with tools to make these changes for you.
To learn the proper way to configure a network device for your system,
refer to your distribution documentation. If during this process you are
asked for the driver or module name, the name for the Linux Base Driver
for the Gigabit Family of Adapters is e1000e.

As an example, if you install the e1000e driver for two Gigabit adapters
(eth0 and eth1) and want to set the interrupt mode to MSI-X and MSI
respectively, add the following to modules.conf or /etc/modprobe.conf:

alias eth0 e1000e
alias eth1 e1000e
options e1000e IntMode=2,1

You might have to do a little Google search to find out exactly which file(s) to change in order to load the module correctly at boot.

Kind regards,

Eric

no proprietary devices.
