George:

You are likely just booting into an older gutsy kernel. At your grub screen, just pick the newer 2.6.24 based kernel.

Subject: [Bug 135316] Re: Marvell Technology ethernet card not recognized andnot operational

OK, now I am confused. I should state that I am a newcomer, and a very
happy one, to Linux. I used to sysadmin Sun boxes (primarily SunOS)
about 10-15 years ago, so I have a reasonable, if slightly dated, idea
of my way around Unix systems.

Back to now:

I initially installed Gutsy on the laptop, hit the problem with the LAN
so upgraded (I thought) to Hardy.

If I run uname -a I see "Linux MCNAME 2.6.22.14-generic #1 SMP DATE i686
GNU/Linux".

If I run lsb_release -a I see "Ubuntu 8.04" codename "Hardy" (among
other stuff).

Did something break on the upgrade perhaps?
