Hello, My Thinkpad laptop has a Lubuntu partition that has wired and wireless access: the modules are iwlwifi and e1000e. Another partition runs exeGnu Trinity 14 but no internet connection. I used modprobe to install the above modules and put their names in /etc/modules, but wlan0 and eth0 are still not seen. What to do? Robert

Check dmesg. Most probably you did not installed the firmwares required by your network cards. -- Serghei

True, the network devices don't get loaded. I have copied iwlwifi ucode files to /lib/firmware and am trying to find how to get the kernel to use them on startup. Robert
