Your board has an Intel 82579 network chip. The kernel module in Lucid may be too old, so I suggest you install the latest e1000e driver: http://support.intel.com/support/go/network/adapter/home.htm

You need at least kernel 2.6.35 for your adapter.

Here is a simple script. I didn't test it, but I think it will work for you.

#!/bin/bash

apt-get install build-essential
cd ~/
wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/e1000/e1000e%20stable/1.5.1/e1000e-1.5.1.tar.gz
tar xzf e1000e-1.5.1.tar.gz
cd e1000e-1.5.1/src
make install
depmod -a
modprobe e1000e

You will need an internet connection for it to work, or you could just use the commands separately.

Can you help with this problem?
