I am not able to enable the ethernet network interface via the Network settings HMI. (Network setting is activated). But the text Ethernet Networks is always grayed out and shows disconnected. This error occurred after installation of Ubuntu 15.04. My devcie is Laptop HP 6735s.
Which ubuntu package is relevant to file a bug against? Where? Ubuntu-bug?

linux-image-generic as the kernel doesn't have the driver needed, or udev isn't picking it up correctly.

According to http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/SKY2.html there should be built-in support in the Linux kernel since version 2.6.24

What is the output of the commands

uname -a
lsb_release -crid
sudo lshw -C network
lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net
lsmod

Your output confirms that the Ethernet device has been recognized and a suitable driver has been loaded.

Now the question has to be: Why don't you get an IP address?

What is the output of
ifconfig -a

Your output shows

ifconfig -a
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:22:64:5b:10:2a
           UP

The network device is up and running.
If you plug in an Ethernet cable, do you see some indicators blinking next to the connector (usually green and/or yellow)?

The ethernet port is blinking. Today the GUI menu is working too. The network is working, but very slow. E.g. streaming Video is not working.
ifconfig -a

does not show any packet drops. I have exchanged the ethernet cables and the router port - noting seems to have a impact. My second PC on the same router, running also ubuntu, is working fine.

Can you help with this problem?
