The same with me. I tried ubuntu 7.10, cannot get an ip from ethernet card. Then I installed Hardy. No problems with ethernet, but no sound and some other instabilities. Then i installed Debian in this computer. I got ethernet functioning after adding the sk98lin driver. But I got a lot of problems with Debian: cannot suspend, no sound, no wireless, no webcam. etc.: too much work, so i went again for ubuntu. I used ubuntu-dell-1525n-intelvideo-reinstall.iso from dell to reinstall, ethernet did go at home, but after a dist-upgrade, now at work (behind a proxy) again ethernet cannot get an ip from the server. I will try again at home. Too many problems for a computer that comes with ubuntu preinstalled! I do not want to install 2.6.24 (no sound), until it is more stable. I'll try again to install the sk98lin driver.
