Hi,
I have an Asus P5KPL-AM EPU mainboard and when I use the ubuntu disk bundled with the base package my NIC is not working.
I have also downloaded ubuntu 8.04 for amd64 and running that cd the nic does work. However I was not able to get the nucore up and running.
Am I doing something wrong?

There has been one other instance of a NIC not working with the base install.ErikvS wrote:Hi,

Check and see if your ethernet adapter uses a realtek chip (probably.) If so, follow those instructions and you should be good. If it doesn't use a realtek chip check Ubuntu's forums for similar posts.
Re: Ubuntu and NIC
I have an Atheros chip on my mainboard. So I probably need a different driver.
How can I see which driver is used by Ubuntu? So I can check with other disc I have to see what is used

I also looked at other posts and it appears the ethernet driver for that adapter wasn't included on the 8.04 distro. Here links to drivers:

You can try this also. Ubuntu uses Debian drivers.
Re: Ubuntu and NIC
I used the driver from the atheros website and it worked like a charm
Now installing the nucore software. Hopefully this works too
Update:
Installed the nucore software without issues.
One side note, after the cd ran it removed firefox so there is no way to connect to the internet.
I had the roms already downloaded and on USB stick so no issue there but it is a bit weird.
Is there also a way to chose playfield with the keyboard? As I have everything still in a test setting and the original equipment still in the pinball machine

You can hard-set the game by going into our setup menu:
Open coin door
Press the two middle service buttons.
Select Game and choose which one.
Re: Ubuntu and NIC
Can it also be done via keyboard?
Have not hooked it up yet

Re: Ubuntu and NIC
Actually though if you exit to the terminal (F1 I believe) login (root/nucore) then type:
cd /nucore/bin
./run nucore rfm_15 -fullscreen (or swe1_14 for star wars)
that will run it.

Re: Ubuntu and NIC
thanks, that works great.
Next step will be mounting the mainboard in the current case.
I hope you guys release the 2.0 update soon. Cannot wait for the tournament mode
