Need help installing LinuxCNC

e1000e was in the list. i selected it and hit continue and it comes back with the same message... No ethernet card detected. if you know the name of blah blah

also tried double clicking it... same result.

its in a loop

When you doing an install CTR-ALT-F1 will get you a terminal, after trying to load the e1000e driver switch to the terminal and run dmesg and see if you can see anything relating to the load of e1000e.......if if goes by too quick try dmesg | more

CTLR-ALT F5 should get you back to the GUI screen...or try some other Fx keys.....memory is a bit fuzzy ATM

In Ubuntu:
sudo cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep --color vmx should tell if your CPU supports virtualisation

sudo cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep --color svmx should tell if the bios has virtualisation enabled

Also whilst in the termnial could you try lspci -nn and report back any info regarding the ethernet card ?

RE Virtualisation
According to this on page 2-30 VT-x is supported (start reading from 2-28) if this is not an exact match for your motherboard it should be about ball park

Screen shot below

ok, this is what i see

the cpuinfo vmx command showed the vmx in a different color allong with a bunch of other stuff.

the cpuinfo with svmx returned nothing

when i did the ctrl alt f5 then dmesg it didn't come back...like its waiting for mor input
but when i got the terminal showin after teh ctlr alt f5 i see several error messages
a couple warnings on fbdev driver then
(ee) fatal server error
server already active for display ..... if this server is no longer running remove /tmp/.X0-lock

then an error about the need for logo adjustment it needs scaling

perhaps the errors are from a prevously aborted install?

lspci command info in next message
( i need to leave for the night... will work on it again later) thanks

thanks about motherboard vt-x thing i will review and work on that tomorrow

thanks for your help today

Upon further research......

The e1000e driver supplied with debian, even tho it is the right driver, does not have a pci id match for the particular NIC you have. Where as Ubuntu does.

ie: 8086:15bc

Debian does match:
8086:1589
8086:1588
8086:1587
So ATM you are out of luck with the debian kernel

This confirmed by:
modinfo e1000e | grep --color 15BC

(you will get a match with ubuntu)

If the MBO doesn't support virtulisation, well that's kind of sucky.

If you want to build Linuxcnc under Ubuntu check this page out, have a good read
