| bazhang | copy it over then install | 00:00 |

| bazhang | make sure you get the right version, ie matching your current system installed on that xubuntu machine | 00:00 |
| kurokashiro | `r8168-dkms_8.042.00-2_all` | 00:01 |
| bazhang | what version of xubuntu are you on | 00:02 |
| kurokashiro | Latest LTS release: 16.04, Xenial Xerus | 00:04 |
| bazhang | so the above package you listed matches that? | 00:05 |
| kurokashiro | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/r8168/8.041.00-1 | 00:11 |
| kurokashiro | i think this one might | 00:11 |
| knome | http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=xenial&searchon=names&keywords=r8168 - indeed | 00:11 |
| kurokashiro | r8168-dkms_8.041.00-1_all.deb | 00:13 |
| kurokashiro | this is the file i downloaded to the usb | 00:13 |
| kurokashiro | i plugged the usb into the xubuntu pc | 00:15 |
| bazhang | r8168-dkms_8.041.00-1_all.deb | 00:16 |
| bazhang | yeah thats it | 00:16 |
| bazhang | copy the deb over, then right click with mouse | 00:16 |
| kurokashiro | open with software install? | 00:17 |
| bazhang | is that what it offers | 00:17 |
| bazhang | if so, then yes | 00:18 |
| kurokashiro | `open with software install` `open with "archive manager"` `extract here/to` `open with other application` | 00:18 |
| bazhang | the first | 00:18 |
| bazhang | installed? then plug in the ehternet cable, if not yet done | 00:20 |
| kurokashiro | it opens up a window with an install button | 00:20 |
| bazhang | install it | 00:20 |
| kurokashiro | i clicked the install but it doesnt seem to do anything | 00:20 |
| kurokashiro | there is a blue box that says "this software may contain non-free components." | 00:21 |
| kurokashiro | after i click install | 00:21 |
| kurokashiro | and nothing seems to happen | 00:22 |
| bazhang | got an ethernet cable handy? | 00:23 |
| kurokashiro | yes i have an ethernet cable | 00:24 |
| bazhang | is it plugged into the xubuntu machine yet | 00:24 |
| kurokashiro | not yet im moving the machine closer to the modem | 00:26 |
| bazhang | ok, let us know when you have done so | 00:27 |
| kurokashiro | im powering up the machine | 00:29 |
| kurokashiro | the machine is turned on | 00:32 |
| kurokashiro | when i open with software install | 00:32 |
| bazhang | you did that already | 00:33 |
| kurokashiro | there is a blue box saying "this software comes from a 3rd party and may contain non free components." then when i click install it changes to "this softwar emah contain non free components" and seemingly does nothing | 00:33 |
| kurokashiro | the install button is still there | 00:33 |
| knome | what if you press install again after the blue box? | 00:33 |
| kurokashiro | yes | 00:34 |
| kurokashiro | and it doesnt seem to do anything | 00:34 |
| knome | okay | 00:34 |
| kurokashiro | the first click of install changes the text on the blue box | 00:34 |
| kurokashiro | the second click of install doesnt seem to do anything | 00:35 |
| knome | so in that case, try opening a terminal in the directory where you have the file and running | 00:35 |
| knome | dpkg -i filename.deb | 00:35 |
| knome | (you can use tabcompletion, eg. type the first few letters of the filename and then press tab) | 00:35 |
| kurokashiro | "requested operation requires superuser priv" | 00:36 |
| kurokashiro | so put sudo at the start? | 00:36 |
| knome | yeah | 00:36 |
| kurokashiro | "dependency problems prevent configuration of r8168-dkms: r8168-dkms depends on dkms (>=2.1.0.0); however: package dkms is not installed." | 00:39 |
| knome | ...this is the reason why you'd want to use apt-offline | 00:39 |
| bazhang | sneakernet the appropriate dkms first , then that package | 00:41 |
| knome | (note that dkms might have some dependencies that are not installed yet, so you might have to repeat the proces a few times) | 00:42 |
| bazhang | I'm surprised dkms is not included by default | 00:42 |
| knome | yeah, that's kind of weird, but.... | 00:42 |
| kurokashiro | dkms_2.2.0.3.orig.tar.gz | 00:46 |
| kurokashiro | from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+source/dkms | 00:47 |
| knome | please get the .deb | 00:47 |
| kurokashiro | dkms_2.2.0.3-1.1ubuntu5.14.04.5_all.deb | 00:49 |
| kurokashiro | this one? | 00:49 |
| knome | no, that's for 14.04 | 00:50 |
| knome | http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/all/dkms/download | 00:50 |
| knome | get it from one of the links there | 00:50 |
| kurokashiro | i moved it to the desktop of the xubuntu machine | 00:51 |
| knome | now run "sudo dpkg -i file.deb" with that | 00:52 |
| bazhang | I hope he runs it from Desktop | 00:52 |
| knome | well yes, again in the directory of the file... | 00:52 |
| Unit193 | You can actually now `sudo apt install ./file.deb` and it'll resolve deps too. | 00:53 |
| knome | Unit193, considering they are all satisfied... | 00:53 |
| bazhang | no internet of any kind | 00:53 |
| kurokashiro | i did that | 00:54 |
| kurokashiro | now im running the other command | 00:54 |
| knome | or more exactly satisfiable | 00:55 |
| knome | kurokashiro, once you've ran the dkpg command for both of the packages, the driver is installed | 00:55 |
| kurokashiro | it said dkms install completed | 00:55 |
| knome | ok, now for the r8168 one | 00:56 |
| kurokashiro | i did that one too | 00:56 |
| kurokashiro | do i restart the computer now? | 00:57 |
| knome | yep | 00:57 |
| bazhang | got the cable attached? | 00:57 |
| kurokashiro | yes | 00:57 |
| knome | ideally, after reboot you should have connectivity | 00:57 |
| bazhang | should work as is | 00:57 |
| bazhang | but reboot to make sure | 00:57 |
| * knome isn't sure how dkms works, so... | 00:57 | |
| knome | and yes, sometimes things doesn't work even if they should | 00:57 |
| kurokashiro | ethernet still isnt working | 00:59 |
| knome | after reboot? | 00:59 |
| kurokashiro | yes | 00:59 |
| kurokashiro | i dont know why this isnt working | 01:05 |
| knome | Unit193, ideas? | 01:05 |
| bazhang | kurokashiro, did you check what ifconfig -a says now, no need to paste here | 01:19 |
| kurokashiro | i did `$ inxi -Fx` and for Network it says `Network: card: Realtek RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller` `driver: r8168 v: 8.041.00-NAPI port: b000 bus-ID: 0a:00.0` `IF: enp10s0 state: down mac: 30:8..etc` | 01:19 |
| bazhang | please pastebin such a huge output in future | 01:20 |
| bazhang | sudo ifup enp10s0 | 01:21 |
| bazhang | then sudo dhclient enp10s0 | 01:22 |
| kurokashiro | `unknown interface enp10s0` | 01:25 |
| Unit193 | knome: Not sure if you already checked logs or if the driver was in use. | 01:25 |
| knome | no. | 01:26 |
| bazhang | what does ifconfig -a show kurokashiro eth0 or just that other, please just say which, dont repaste all that | 01:26 |
| kurokashiro | it shows `enp10s0` and `lo` | 01:27 |
| knome | Unit193, doesn't the inxi output above confirm it is? | 01:27 |
| Unit193 | The latter it does. | 01:28 |
| knome | yup | 01:28 |
| bazhang | sudo ifconfig enp10s0 hw ether 00:04:FE:11:22:38 | 01:29 |
| bazhang | the last bit we have to substitute | 01:30 |
| kurokashiro | substitute with what? | 01:31 |
| kurokashiro | `00:04:FE:11:22:38` with my `HWaddr`? | 01:32 |
| bazhang | do ip link | 01:32 |
| bazhang | the MAC address is what we want | 01:32 |
| kurokashiro | link/ether 30:85:a9:93:89:7d | 01:33 |
| bazhang | bingo | 01:34 |
| bazhang | substitute that | 01:34 |
| kurokashiro | i did the command | 01:34 |
| bazhang | sudo ifconfig enp10s0 hw ether 30:85:a9:93:89:7d | 01:35 |
| bazhang | that? | 01:35 |
| kurokashiro | yes | 01:35 |
| bazhang | is the cable attached | 01:37 |
| kurokashiro | yes it is | 01:38 |
| bazhang | try to use the internet | 01:38 |
| kurokashiro | it still doesnt work | 01:38 |
| kurokashiro | http://pastebin.com/pJBF1wqu | 01:38 |
| kurokashiro | this is what ifconfig -a prints | 01:39 |
| kurokashiro | now | 01:39 |
| bazhang | sudo dhclient enp10s0 | 01:41 |
| bazhang | does that get you a lease | 01:41 |
| kurokashiro | i did the command and it is still doing something | 01:44 |
| bazhang | doing what | 01:46 |
| kurokashiro | it just finished | 01:46 |
| kurokashiro | it wasnt doing anything | 01:46 |
| kurokashiro | it was just "stuck" | 01:47 |
| bazhang | ping www.google.com | 01:47 |
| kurokashiro | unknown host` | 01:47 |
| bazhang | kurokashiro> i did the command and it is still doing something | 02:01 |
| bazhang | what was the something | 02:01 |
| kurokashiro | by something i meant it asked it for my password and then made an empty line and just stayed like that until it finished | 02:02 |
| bazhang | what was the command you did | 02:02 |
| kurokashiro | sudo dhclient enp10s0 | 02:03 |
| kurokashiro | i tried `/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-npm10s0` and it gives me an error | 02:21 |
| kurokashiro | enp* | 02:22 |
| kurokashiro | i got a you are now connected to enp10s0 but still cant connection to the internet through etherner | 03:18 |
| kurokashiro | ethernet | 03:18 |
| kurokashiro | im just going to reinstall windows and see if everything works fine on windows | 03:43 |
| kurokashiro | to at least know if its something wrong with hardware or something | 03:43 |
