Just installed Loki on a desktop with a Realtek (RTL8111/RTL8168) ethernet card, and the LAN does not work. Apparently this is an issue with the card, so to fix it I went to:
How To get your Realtek RTL8111/RTL8168 working (updated guide)
and downloaded the driver manually from my laptop (since I have no internet connection on that PC). Now, to install it I need to first blacklist the old driver with:
sudo sh -c 'echo blacklist r8169 >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf'
which worked, and then simply:
sudo ./autorun.sh
The problem is that this results in:
./autorun.sh: 30: ./autorun.sh: make: not found
which is apparently fixed with:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
but I have no internet connection to do that!
Am I doing something wrong? Is it really this difficult to get LAN internet connection with Loki using a Realtek card?
