Thank you so much for helping with this!  I really would like to get this going again.  It probably is something as simple as a driver for the NIC card.
Here is a link to some of things we have tried on another forum if it helps.

It looks like Linux cannot see the Ethernet card (NIC).
It's possibly just a driver issue.

Try the "lspci" command. That will list the devices that have been detected.

When you boot up, keep an eye out for any specific error messages. 
The "dmesg" command will show you a log that should help.

Also try the command "sudo update-initramfs" and reboot. (You'll need the administrator password)

Lastly, I believe the support for Ubuntu 8.10 ended in 2010. The current version is 14.04.3
An upgrade might solve your problem since it'll likely come with new drivers.
I'd recommend an upgrade just for security reasons. You don't wanna be running around on the internet with an out-of-date system.

If you want to dig deep, however, you can try to find out your Ethernet card model number, get the Windows driver, and attempt to use "ndiswrapper" to get it going.

I just replace a motherboard with an ASROCK N68C-GS4 FX.  I put an Opteron 1389 in it.  I installed Ubuntu 8.1. 

When I boot it up, everything appears to beworking except access to the internet.  It is connected to my network via the motherboard with a Ethernet cable.  

This setup was working fine with the old motherboardand CPU.

 

When I run ifconfig I get:

 

Lo     Link encap:LocalLoopback

         Inet addr:127.0.0.1

         In6 addr    ::1/128 scope : Host

         UP LoopbackRunning MTD:16436 Metric:1

          TX Packets:38Errors:0 Dropped: 0 Overruns:0 Carrier:0

          Collisons: 0  txqueuele:0

           RX Bytes: 2727(2.7 kB)  TX Bytes: 2728 (2.7 kB)


 

I am not very Linux adept. 

 

Any ideas how I solve this issue?
