Install driver Realtek 8211B onboard NIC

booberandpuzz · 04-28-2008, 01:49 PM

I was unable to get Debian 4.0R3 working with my relatively new MB chipset, but Ubuntu 8.04LTS seems to work pretty well. My only issue at present is that I don't know how to get the onboard gigabit NIC working.

The MB is MSI K9NGM4-F V.2 AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 7025 Micro ATX AMD
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813130162

The onboard LAN is Realtek 8211B. Ubuntu works just fine with an older PCI card (DLink DFE-530TX) installed. But I really want to get the Gigabit LAN going since this system is intended to be a simple Samba fileserver for my SOHO LAN (only necessary because Microsoft screwed the pooch so badly with Windows Home Server and forced me to finally try Linux--a long story for another day).

Anyway, I find very little useful Linux info at the nVidia site for anything other than commercial releases like RedHat and display drivers. The nVidia site, BTW, is still more helpful than MSI which seems to pretend Linux doesn't exist. If the correct advice is to replace this new, but very inexpensive, motherboard with a non-nVidia board, that's OK; my time is far more precious right now than a few bucks and I just need this thing to work.

Hopefully though, I can get some straightforward advice on getting Ubuntu to detect and install the device drivers.

Thanks in advance ...

Hi booberandpuzz, Could we see the output from the following please?

Code:

/sbin/lspci -v
/sbin/lsmod

Good luck. ;-)

Probably not a big deal, but those two commands were in /bin

lsmod:

Sorry about that, with Ubuntu you could've just used sudo. Probably would have saved some searching.

What does dmesg say about the card? The forcedeth module is loaded and some reading is telling me it should be supported as of kernel 2.6.18.
Good luck. ;-)

Found this digging through the Ubuntu bug system.

# Check if forcedeth-Module is currently active:

Code:

lsmod | grep forcedeth if active, it should result in forcedeth 38372 0

# Unload forcedeth-Module if active

Code:

modprobe -r forcedeth

# Load forcedeth-Module without MSI and MSIX for testing:

Code:

modprobe forcedeth msi=0 msix=0

# Restart Network:

Code:

/etc/init.d/networking restart

If that works, then you can add the options to /etc/modprobe.d/options as follows.

Code:

options forcedeth msi=0 msix=0

booberandpuzz · 04-29-2008, 02:23 PM

lsmod |grep forcedeth

Code:

forcedeth  51980  0

modprobe -r forcedeth

Code:

FATAL: Error removing forcedeth <snip> Operation not permitted.

I'm very sorry. As I was entering the first of these commands, it just dawned on me that I might have a DHCP problem and I went looking at my DHCP server/wireless router configuration. I have it set to filter by MAC. I know this address was in there at the beginning of the project, but I never got it to work correctly so I had been using an older NIC during my attempts to install Debian. Anyway, this problem was solved by adding MAC address back in ... admittedly dumb on my part not to check that first. I've never done it that way before, but I must have overwritten the problem MAC instead of adding the new one. Why would I do that?

I will say that it is truly eye-opening and encouraging to see all the transparent and powerful tools you have at your disposal in Linux. Give me Microstation and I think I'm all in. I will be lobbying Bentley to that end. I think the writing is on the wall (spelled "Vista") and Linux is the future.

Thanks very much for your help. I can't believe I've gotten this all working so well (with help) when it was so discouraging just a couple of days ago. The bottom line is that Ubuntu 8.04 actually installed perfectly on the first attempt. The only problem was cockpit error external to this system.

Time to crack open the "Using Samba" book and get some backups made. Again, thank you.

You're welcome, Glad you sorted it.
Good luck. ;-)
