One step forward, two steps back

In Feisty, agere et131x - Ethernet card of my LG P1 - was automatically installed.
Today with Hardy 8.04 and new versions of kernel, there is no 'out of the box'!

One step forward, two steps back! Hrr

To install it:

Download et131x-1.2.3-2.tar.gz (or more recent ) here.

$ sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r)
go to the unpackaged et131x folder
$ make
$ sudo make modules_install
$ insmod et131x.ko
$ sudo depmod
$ sudo modprobe et131x


There might me some errors... close your eyes!
Reboot.

The audio card - Realtek LC880 - was never fixed. I only have audio on phones!

Create new file:
$ sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel
Paste and save:
options snd-hda-intel model=lg
Reboot!
