Hardware Drivers

Diplay Drivers

nVidia

Only applies to Ubuntu 8.10 and 9.04

• find existing nvidia drivers: dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia
  • apt-get remove all of the nvidia drivers listed above
• install nVidia drivers from nvidia.com: bash NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.18-pkg1.run

Network troubleshooting

Network Manager

• Make sure that the devices listed in network manager match those listed in /etc/network/interfaces
• List all interfaces - even those unconfigured ifconfig -a

udev

• Network MAC addresses and Device names are mapped in the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
  • Note: If you make changes to this file make sure that your /etc/network/interfaces files and NetworkManager agree!
• When imaging you must clear all or the entries in the file just prior to making the image!

e1000e driver problems

Note: for Ubuntu 8.04 to 9.10 (possibley 10.04) the e100e drive may not work correctly or corrupt data
Use the command: lspci to find if you have an e1000e card

• Problems know to occure with the following chipsets:
  • Intel Corporation 82567LM-3 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 02)
• You need another working machine with network access
• make sure you have the packages to buld the modules with
  • apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic
• Download latest e1000e_stable driver from sourceforge.net and copy to USB KEY if needed
  • Main Project Page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000
  • sudo bash
  • cd /root
  • Download Driver - in this example we are getting : e1000e-1.2.10.tar.gz
  • wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/e1000/e1000e%20stable/1.2.10/e1000e-1.2.10.tar.gz
  • tar xzf e1000e-1.2.10.tar.gz
  • cd e1000e-1.2.10/
  • Read the README file more README
  • cd src
  • make
  • make install
  • Install the new driver: rmmod e1000e; modprobe e1000e
  • Make sure it gets loaded on boot:
    • echo e1000e >> /etc/modules
  • If there is no startup for eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces add it to the file

       # The primary network interface
       auto eth0
       iface eth0 inet dhcp
