Dear All,
I am Arun.I am a new gnewsense (deltah) user.I am running gnewsense
on an Inspiron N4010 laptop manufactured by Dell.The processor is
Intel -i5 460M.I am not able to connect to a wired LAN connection
which works very well with Windows 7 which came pre-installed on the
system.I found out that the ethernet controller used on the system is
manufactured by Atheros .The model name is Atheros 8152 . Network
manager does not detect the device.As a result I am not able to
connect to LAN.
Infact my USB ports ,sound devices also do not function.But this is
not a severe problem right now.I need to have a working internet
connection which is essential for me.
Could anybody help me to solve the problem?
With Best Regards,
ArunPrasath V
Hello Arun and welcome to gNewSense!
Maybe your wired card is supported on a more recent kernel.
Try downloading and installing this one:
