I tried to install all of the packages. Synaptic Package Manager shows that they are all installed. Unfortunately that didn't fix the issue. Still no wired network. It still shows that Wired Cable unplugged under the Network window. (Note: I am certain that the Ethernet cable that I am using is good because the same one plugged into another computer works fine).

Something to note though - I performed the install by typing in the dpkg for each package. I received an error three times (same error). It told me to check a log file. The contents of the log file are below the attempted install of the 4 packages. By the error, I can't tell whether the packages were all fully installed successfully. I think that they probably were because they only seem to affect VirtualBox.

I have 2 questions:
Were the 4 packages installed successfully?
Should I keep these 4 packages installed or should I uninstall them?

Thanks for your time.
