I am completely new to this entire OS and looks like i need some help. I just installed Lubuntu 13.10 onto my old Dell. The system runs great but i can't connect to the internet at all. Ive searched for hours from previous post but nothing has helped.
When i run terminal i get the following message:
ifconfig -a
eth0

Also when i go into /etc/networkmanager/networkmanager.conf it had said "managed=false" but i figured out how to change it to "managed=true" still nothing... I thought i had some computer coding background but man was i wrong. Please help me with this! Im not even sure if the OS can recognize the ethernet port ( It was working fine when i had Windows on it prior to Ubuntu install, and is the port that came with the computer) and the internet is currently working with a ethernet wired PC in a different room.
