Re: [tlug] Networking Blues



P.S. This laptop came with Windoze, and I have no
problem connecting to the Net with Windoze. (I
rarely boot into the Win 7 OS, but did just to check
the network connection.)

Laptop has quit connecting to the Net. No idea why,
but it gives me the "Networking Disabled" notice
when I mouse over my connections icon.

Ubuntu 10.04 (with usual user of such an OS
suspicions mostly valid). The laptop is an HP
fairly new (less than a year old). Last time I used it
about a month ago there were no problems.

Today I started getting it ready to take to Montana
and couldn't connect to the Net. Same setup as
when I last used it, right here on the home network.

When I go to System Administration --> Networking
Tools, I get "loopback interface (lo)" same as on my
desktop that does connect. I have no idea why
networking is disabled or how to change that
status.

Any suggestions gratefully tried.
