Not sure what the issue is...
The Ubuntu Network Manager says eth0 is active, but I can't do anything. Any ideas?

You can check the output of ifconfig to see if your card is being assigned an address.
You can see what's in /etc/resolv.conf; hopefully there are two or three lines specifying nameservers.Stand up and be counted as a Linux user!

How 'bout the ifconfig command?
If you're getting a network address, then it might just be a matter of making a good resolv.conf file. The easiest way to do that is copy the one from the laptop.Stand up and be counted as a Linux user!

I copied what was in my laptops one into the desktops resolv.conf file, but it still doesn't work.

Try ifconfig up ... This option makes an interface accessible to the IP layer.

also post back what happens when you try to ping a site e.g. google.Life is complex, it has a real part and an imaginary part.
