[04:47] <BlunderButt> Howdy.  New to IRC.  Just upgraded to UbuntuStudio 18.04 from 17.10.  Under both, my integrated MB Networking chip is not found, RealTEK RTL8111E.  Any thoughts?
[15:26] <studio-user295> is it possible to change from kubuntu 14.04 to ubuntu studio?
[15:28] <Eickmeyer> studio-user295: Yes, but I wouldn't recommend staying on 14.04 since it has passed end-of-life. I'd recommend upgrading incrementally to 16.04 then 18.04.
[15:29] <studio-user295> thank you

[16:44] <Eickmeyer> Hi BlunderButt, I saw you were in here about 12 hours ago as well. Since Ubuntu is simply a customized Ubuntu, I'd recommend the #ubuntu IRC channel for this. That said, it looks like it's a proprietary driver and that you might have to google for it.
[16:44] <Eickmeyer> I found something here: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false#2
[16:50] <BlunderButt> Thx for the feedback, Eickmeyer.  I've done considerable generic Google on this already.  I had run across that item, and also found subsequent material indicating it was only good to kernel 4.7.  I'm not sure if that refers to the R8168 driver, but I tried that with no improvement.  I'll try the vanilla IRC.  Thx again.
[16:51] <BlunderButt> And I thought I'd throw a hail Mary just before turning in for the night, 12ish hours ago.  I only gave it a few minutes before I pooped-out.
[16:54] <Eickmeyer> BlunderButt: No worries. But, yeah, I've never had a RealTek driver problem. Some systems are more Linux friendly than others.
