[SOLVED] Trouble connecting to Ethernet

04 July 2020, 21:34:03

Hi everyone !

Just like with any other distro, my PC has trouble connecting to internet. But this time, there's not systemd or anything I was remotely familiar with.

I've tried this :

Code: [Select]

echo "options forcedeth msi=0 msix=0" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/forcedeth.conf
sudo mkinitcpio -p linux

(worked on ubuntu but with update-initramfs instead of the second command)

Ip link output :
image
neofetch output :
image
lspci output :
image
rfkill doesnt give any output

I really hope someone can help me with this. Thanks in advance !

Is DHCP server running on the other end of wire? Maybe you need static IP

Already responded with how to fix it, I needed to pass the msi=0 parameter to forcedeth
