Check dmesg. Have you tried manually editing the file??

Hey Guys,

I recently built a desktop and flashed Ubuntu(17.04) on it.

For some reason I am not able to get ethernet working on it. I have tried most the network manager hacks on the internet but with no success.

To add to the woes, the machine is currently not connected to internet and the ubuntu cli didn't have basic tools like ifconfig/ethtool  installed.

The details of the build is as follows:


Computer Type: Custom Desktop build.

GPU:MSI - GeForce GT 710 2GB Video Card

CPU:AMD - Ryzen 5 1400 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor.

Motherboard: MSI - B350 TOMAHAWK ATX AM4 Motherboard.

RAM: Crucial - 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR4-2133.

PSU:
Thermaltake - VO545A1N2U ATX Mid Tower Case w/450W Power Supply. SSD: Silicon power 120GB SSD 3D NAND HDD: WD Blue 500 GB Internal HDD ‑ 3.5" ‑ WD5000AAKS Operating System & Version: Ubuntu 17.04

Chipset Drivers: Whatever came with the board. Nothing new installed Background Applications: NA

Ethernet adapter: realtek 8169 I believe.


Any Help will be greatly appreciated. Its a shame that in this day and age, a fresh Ubuntu build does not work out of the box :(
