[00:00] copy it over then install === Zren_ is now known as Zren [00:00] make sure you get the right version, ie matching your current system installed on that xubuntu machine [00:01] `r8168-dkms_8.042.00-2_all` [00:02] what version of xubuntu are you on [00:04] Latest LTS release: 16.04, Xenial Xerus [00:05] so the above package you listed matches that? [00:11] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/r8168/8.041.00-1 [00:11] i think this one might [00:11] http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=xenial&searchon=names&keywords=r8168 - indeed [00:13] r8168-dkms_8.041.00-1_all.deb [00:13] this is the file i downloaded to the usb [00:15] i plugged the usb into the xubuntu pc [00:16] r8168-dkms_8.041.00-1_all.deb [00:16] yeah thats it [00:16] copy the deb over, then right click with mouse [00:17] open with software install? [00:17] is that what it offers [00:18] if so, then yes [00:18] `open with software install` `open with "archive manager"` `extract here/to` `open with other application` [00:18] the first [00:20] installed? then plug in the ehternet cable, if not yet done [00:20] it opens up a window with an install button [00:20] install it [00:20] i clicked the install but it doesnt seem to do anything [00:21] there is a blue box that says "this software may contain non-free components." [00:21] after i click install [00:22] and nothing seems to happen [00:23] got an ethernet cable handy? [00:24] yes i have an ethernet cable [00:24] is it plugged into the xubuntu machine yet [00:26] not yet im moving the machine closer to the modem [00:27] ok, let us know when you have done so [00:29] im powering up the machine [00:32] the machine is turned on [00:32] when i open with software install [00:33] you did that already [00:33] 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] the install button is still there [00:33] what if you press install again after the blue box? [00:34] yes [00:34] and it doesnt seem to do anything [00:34] okay [00:34] the first click of install changes the text on the blue box [00:35] the second click of install doesnt seem to do anything [00:35] so in that case, try opening a terminal in the directory where you have the file and running [00:35] dpkg -i filename.deb [00:35] (you can use tabcompletion, eg. type the first few letters of the filename and then press tab) [00:36] "requested operation requires superuser priv" [00:36] so put sudo at the start? [00:36] yeah [00:39] "dependency problems prevent configuration of r8168-dkms: r8168-dkms depends on dkms (>=2.1.0.0); however: package dkms is not installed." [00:39] ...this is the reason why you'd want to use apt-offline [00:41] sneakernet the appropriate dkms first , then that package [00:42] (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] I'm surprised dkms is not included by default [00:42] yeah, that's kind of weird, but.... [00:46] dkms_2.2.0.3.orig.tar.gz [00:47] from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+source/dkms [00:47] please get the .deb [00:49] dkms_2.2.0.3-1.1ubuntu5.14.04.5_all.deb [00:49] this one? [00:50] no, that's for 14.04 [00:50] http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/all/dkms/download [00:50] get it from one of the links there [00:51] i moved it to the desktop of the xubuntu machine [00:52] now run "sudo dpkg -i file.deb" with that [00:52] I hope he runs it from Desktop [00:52] well yes, again in the directory of the file... [00:53] You can actually now `sudo apt install ./file.deb` and it'll resolve deps too. [00:53] Unit193, considering they are all satisfied... [00:53] no internet of any kind [00:54] i did that [00:54] now im running the other command [00:55] or more exactly satisfiable [00:55] kurokashiro, once you've ran the dkpg command for both of the packages, the driver is installed [00:55] it said dkms install completed [00:56] ok, now for the r8168 one [00:56] i did that one too [00:57] do i restart the computer now? [00:57] yep [00:57] got the cable attached? [00:57] yes [00:57] ideally, after reboot you should have connectivity [00:57] should work as is [00:57] but reboot to make sure [00:57] * knome isn't sure how dkms works, so... [00:57] and yes, sometimes things doesn't work even if they should [00:59] ethernet still isnt working [00:59] after reboot? [00:59] yes [01:05] i dont know why this isnt working [01:05] Unit193, ideas? [01:19] kurokashiro, did you check what ifconfig -a says now, no need to paste here [01:19] 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` [01:20] please pastebin such a huge output in future [01:21] sudo ifup enp10s0 [01:22] then sudo dhclient enp10s0 [01:25] `unknown interface enp10s0` [01:25] knome: Not sure if you already checked logs or if the driver was in use. [01:26] no. [01:26] what does ifconfig -a show kurokashiro eth0 or just that other, please just say which, dont repaste all that [01:27] it shows `enp10s0` and `lo` [01:27] Unit193, doesn't the inxi output above confirm it is? [01:28] The latter it does. [01:28] yup [01:29] sudo ifconfig enp10s0 hw ether 00:04:FE:11:22:38 [01:30] the last bit we have to substitute [01:31] substitute with what? [01:32] `00:04:FE:11:22:38` with my `HWaddr`? [01:32] do ip link [01:32] the MAC address is what we want [01:33] link/ether 30:85:a9:93:89:7d [01:34] bingo [01:34] substitute that [01:34] i did the command [01:35] sudo ifconfig enp10s0 hw ether 30:85:a9:93:89:7d [01:35] that? [01:35] yes [01:37] is the cable attached [01:38] yes it is [01:38] try to use the internet [01:38] it still doesnt work [01:38] http://pastebin.com/pJBF1wqu [01:39] this is what ifconfig -a prints [01:39] now [01:41] sudo dhclient enp10s0 [01:41] does that get you a lease [01:44] i did the command and it is still doing something [01:46] doing what [01:46] it just finished [01:46] it wasnt doing anything [01:47] it was just "stuck" [01:47] ping www.google.com [01:47] unknown host` [02:01] kurokashiro> i did the command and it is still doing something [02:01] what was the something [02:02] 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] what was the command you did [02:03] sudo dhclient enp10s0 [02:21] i tried `/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-npm10s0` and it gives me an error [02:22] enp* [03:18] i got a you are now connected to enp10s0 but still cant connection to the internet through etherner [03:18] ethernet [03:43] im just going to reinstall windows and see if everything works fine on windows [03:43] to at least know if its something wrong with hardware or something === exio4 is now known as init === init is now known as hacker === hacker is now known as \e === \e is now known as e4xoi === e4xoi is now known as exio === exio is now known as exio4 [10:19] hello [10:23] hi [10:23] thats all [10:23] bye [10:24] I just installed Xubuntu 16.04.
