| blinux | Hi, I just tried Ubuntu Mate and was very surprised to find that after installation the wired ethernet did not work, though it worked during live installation. I did some checking and I read multiple reports of wired ethernet not working with Ubuntu server as well as desktop at various time over the years in ways that were very unusual. | 20:57 |
|---|---|---|
| superkuh | network-manager should be handling it. | 21:25 |
| superkuh | What do you see when you right click the network plug icon in the top right of your MATE GUI? Connection information, etc. | 21:25 |
| blinux | I saw pretty normal. Information. I tried setting it to automatic and also disabling IPV6 and that didn't work. | 21:40 |
| superkuh | Doesn't work means what? You don't get a DHCP lease for an ipv4 from the router? You can't ping other hosts on the network? | 21:49 |
| blinux | I'm a little lacking on information. I'm running Debian right now. I uninstalled Ubuntu Mate on my other drive when ethernet didn't even work. I can reinstall it on the other drive and give you more information perhaps. | 21:57 |
| superkuh | Okay. If you get a chance you should see if it actually gets an ip address that isn't just 169.254.xxx.xxx something. And make sure that if the computer has two network interface cards the one you care about is the one with the IP and plugged in. | 22:01 |
| sixwheeledbeast | is network-manager used now? I thought the latest version was netplan and systemd-resolved | 23:26 |
| superkuh | Ah. I might be out out of date. | 23:29 |
