http://ubuntuforums.org – I recently upgraded to 12.04 and my wifi and ethernet cards aren't recognized. The only way they're recognized and functional is when I plug my ethernet card to my router and then boot the system. I've already read all threats about my card (AR5B93) but nobody seems to have same issue. Of course I've already tried all stuff they said. I will appreciate your help. Sorry for my English.

Firstly, hello :)!  Been lurking on here for a while and absolutely loving how #!

I set up ubuntu 12.04 server edition on an old computer and the ethernet is not connecting. It is recognized by ifconfig as eth0, and I think it worked during installation.

The driver is supported(SiS 900) and was recognized by lspci so the computer knows that it's there.

I upgraded recently to ubuntu 12.04 from 11.10, and since then I haven't been able to connect to Internet, neither using wifi, nor using ethernet. I've been reading many posts, but not finding a solution in any. My laptop is a 64-bit HP-G61, my wifi card a Atheros AR9285 and my ethernet card a Realtek RTL 8101E/RTL8102E.

I have a linux ubuntu 12.04 server machine which works with an usb sound card. When rebooting the machine, sometimes the usb sound card is recognized and sometimes not, I cannot figure out a reason for this. I understand when the sound card is recognized because when I issue the command:

cat /proc/asound/modules

I can see listed or not the line snd_usb_audio.

Analyzing the /var/log/kernel.log

I'm setting up an old computer with ubuntu server 12.04. I wiped the drive and went through the installation fine but afterwards the ethernet would not work. It's physically connected to the router and the card is recognized by lspci(SiS 900) but it won't connect at all. I've plugged in and installed the drivers for a wifi adapter and it's worked with the same router.

My audio card (Audigy Sound Blaster) was noisy (it sounded like a scratchy record previously on Windows XP but got much worse on Ubuntu) so I bought a cheap new StarTech 4CH card. When I put it in the PCI slot and booted up, my system ceased to acknowledge there was a sound card on board. I swapped back to the Audigy that functioned noisily before and it wasn't recognized either.

So, I have migrated from initscripts to a pure systemd install along with systemd-sysvcompat. I rebooted and everything went fine but my wireless card is not recognized.  I dont know if a kernel upgrade botched it as it worked fine before I updated.lspci says that it has recognized it as shown here.Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc.

I have two internal Hard drives. One is a 200GB dual boot with Win7 & and Ubuntu 12.04. I unplugged the second drive, a 1 TB, during the OS installation process to make sure I didn't wipe out any of my files. When I plug in the TB drive now I get an "initramfs" error on start-up and can not get the drive to be recognized. When I unplug it (SATA), the OS's boot fine.

Hi,

I'm trying to understand what exactly is the problem, but not so sure. I’m using Ubuntu 11.10 (Kernel 3.0.0-26), and stuck on the troubleshooting procedure. When using the command: aplay -l It gives the following output: aplay: device_list:240: no soundcards found... So I go to Procedure Ac (Make the system/ALSA recognize the sound card), and everything seem to be fine there, so I'm a l
