    D-Link network cards not recognized

    I have two D-Link network cards installed in my computer. The Ubuntu 10.04a2 installer seemed to recognize only one of them, though I know both are functional. I plugged a CAT5 cable in here, connected to my home network (with Internet). The installer proceeded happily, configuring DHCP and synchronizing clocks. However, when I rebooted after its completion, Ubuntu didn't recognize that I was connected to the network. I re-jiggled the RJ-45 connector, to no avail. When I run "System Testing," it does list both network cards during the Network suite, one being D-Link, and the other "James Bond" or something. So, what gives?

    That's the peril of trying out alpha software, especially when the release date is 10 weeks away!

    You need to either install kk, or persevere with ll, and raise a bugreport.

    Um, guess what? They don't work in Windows XP SP2 (upgrading to SP3 is hard w/o Internet) nor from within an Ubuntu 9.10 live CD. I think I'll just toss them and put in one from Wal-Mart now.
