After a successful installation, onto my Amd X2 3800+, Asus m2n-e, 2 gig Corsair xms, 250 gig sata2 hd ( partitioned 3 ways, 1 = xp, 2 = Ubuntu, 3 = lawless mac osx )

In system preferences > Network, It says the Cable Unplugged, The cable for Ethernet is not plugged in. ( yes I'm 100% certain the cable is plugged in, as I'm able to browse in the other os without issues )


Now I have searched and a few "fixes" for the issue, but neither seem to have worked.
1st was to set the Wake on lan to enabled ( in XP ). ( have done )
2nd was to enable magic packet in bios. ( enabled )

The network card is the onboard Nvidia gigabit lan.

Anyone have any other fixes for this issue perhaps?

Cheers.
