Hi everyone,
The bug jam is almost upon us.
I realised that it will be important to have lots of live cds,
so bring any you have. Hardy, Intrepid, Jaunty (especially Jaunty,
latest alpha or daily), and Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, etc.
Thanks,
James

Could you attach the entire output of just the dmesg command please so
we can diagnose further please?
Thanks for the suggestions, Guy.
"sudo dmesg grep eth0" gives:
usage: dmesg [-c][-n level][-s bufsize]
"sudo ifconfig -a" gives the same as "sudo ifconfig", namely, local
loopback only.

Hi there Dianne,
Does your computer have an integrated graphics port that you can use in the
meantime?
If that works alright (without desktop effects) then that could be a good
short term solution.
As Simon has mentioned an nVidia 6xxx graphics card can be obtained quite
cheaply nowadays.

It seems like your network card is not recognised. Perhaps it is
disabled in the bios? Sometimes it conflicts with the "Wake up on lan"
setting from the bios.
Try this command: dmesg | grep eth0

but OK for my needs. I've also been given a Relisys Teo Teco TL766 flat
