Inspiron 1525: can't detect network cards, wired and wireless
I just downloaded and installed BT3 on a USB flash drive. It boots fine, but here's my problem (can't paste so i'll explain the best i can)
ifconfig
lo
link encap: local loopback
inet addr: 127.0.0.1 mask: 255.0.0.0
up loopback running mtu:16436 metric:1
rx packets, tx packets, rx bytes, tx bytes all 0
that's all it shows... no eth0
if i type iwconfig
lo
no wireless extensions
i've tried typing commands to get eth0 up but it doesn't even recognize eth0.
try
Code:ifconfig -a
it says the same thing..
lo
link encap: local loopback
inet addr: 127.0.0.1 mask: 255.0.0.0
up loopback running mtu:16436 metric:1
rx packets, tx packets, rx bytes, tx bytes all 0
btw, i'm using a dell wireless 1395 WLAN mini-card for wireless card and a marvel yukon 88E8040 PCI-E Fast ethernet card for wired
i don't know if my last reply went through.Originally Posted by balding_parrot
if i do ifconfig -a it only shows lo with all the same information i posted earlier
i'm also using a dell wireless 1395 WLAN mini-card for wifi and a marvell yukon 88E8040 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Card for wired
ok, i downloaded and installed BT2 and the same thing is happening. does anyone have any ideas? any input would be greatly appreciated
I am having the same problem as kcsrnd, I also have the same wireless card as him.
Any help would be appreciated,
At least its not just me. Are you using an Inspiron 1525 too?
i ran ubuntu feisty and it recognizes my eth card, at least.. i had to install drivers to get my wireless card to work.
but with BT2 & 3 I can't get either to work. and I can't find any help anywhere.
i really want this to work will someone help me?
BT3 beta (usb flash edition) and the same thing. any ideas?
Got it
I installed this driver from the marvell site and now it works!
