Comment 14 for bug 153635

I am completely frustrated at trying to get my networking operational. I used to have the VMWare Player (v 5 something) and I thought, "what the heck, I'll buy VMWare Workstation 6.02 (build 59824) to be able to create virtual machines, etc. I also had Ubuntu 5.10 working great, and networking was fine. Now I have changed so much, I can't even get back to where I was.

I am also getting the "No network devices have been found" from the nm-applet. When I run System->Administration->Network Tools I see only a loopback device listed. There is no "eth0" or other devices. I have an Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network connector and I have tried automatic bridging, NATing, and even trying to map the wireless card directly to vmnet0. None of this works.

I have installed vmware tools and had no compiler errors. This is a brand new installation of Ubuntu 7.04 because I couldn't get through all the compile problems on 7.10. Shouldn't a network device exist even before tools is installed?

I have attached a copy of my /var/log/syslog in case anyone can see anything.

Thanks for any help.
