Bug Description

I recently applied updates that included the 5.0.0-36 kernel. I think the update arrived on Nov 14, 2019 or Nov 15, 2019.

Networking no longer works. The machine does not have an IP address. Dmesg does not show the customary entries for networking.

My machine is a Dell XPS 8930, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B078N85NCR. The network card is Qualcomm Atheros Killer E2400 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 10).

I installed a USB ethernet adapter with hopes I could get networking up. Unfortunately, no joy.

Dmesg shows the controller was recognized, but that is as far as things got. The adapter was not used for networking. No IP address was assigned.

Things are really sideways here.
