Re: Guix not seeing my Ethernet card
I built the image but it did work I had the same problem. Than I tried with the development snapshot, and I saw that it bringed up my ethernet card but it was not able to finish booting into the tty. So I think it is a kernel related issue. > 2020. szept. 19. dátummal, 12:34 időpontban Andreas Enge > írta: > > On Sat, Sep 19, 2020 at 12:07:24PM +0200, Barnabás Béres wrote: Thanks > Andreas, but how can I add this on the LiveUSB? > > I suppose you could follow the advice here: > > https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Building-the-Installation-Image.html > and build a custom installation image with this module.

I suppose you could follow the advice here: https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Building-the-Installation-Image.html and build a custom installation image with this module. But it requires that you already have a running Guix installation somewhere (which could be a binary installation on top of another distro). Otherwise I have no further ideas, maybe someone else can chime in. Andreas

Thanks Andreas, but how can I add this on the LiveUSB? > 2020. szept. 19. dátummal, 10:06 időpontban Andreas Enge > írta: > > Hello, > >> On Sat, Sep 19, 2020 at 08:10:24AM +0200, Barnabás Béres wrote: >> [1.019472] r8169 :07:00.0: realtek.ko not loaded, maybe it >> needs to be added to initramfs? > > that rings a bell!

I do have the line ;; Add kernel module for Symbios Logic SAS1068E (initrd-modules (append (list "mptsas") %base-initrd-modules)) in one of my configurations. So maybe you can copy this line and replace "mptsas" by "realtek". Andreas
Re: Guix not seeing my Ethernet card
Hi raingloom, Thanks for your reply. I'm having a Realtek RTL810xE PCI Express Fast Ethernet card which is using the r8169 driver under tisqurell linux. It show up under lshw and lspci Dmesg shows things like that: [1.019467] libphy: r8169: probed [1.019472] r8169 :07:00.0: realtek.ko not loaded, maybe it needs to be added to initramfs? [1.073016] r8169: probe of :07:00.0 failed with error -49 raingloom ezt írta (időpont: 2020. szept. 18., P, 22:24): > On Fri, 18 Sep 2020 10:18:48 +0200 > Barnabás Béres wrote: > > > Hello, > > In the past I have used Guix in virtualbox and I wanted to install it > > on my laptop as the main operating system.

Or whatever other logs you might have that are relevant. Like, does the device show up in lsusb/lspci/lshw? I'm just guessing, but it could be udev related. I've been having some issues with my Wacom tablet that were caused by that. (haven't fixed it yet. *sadface*)
