Hello everyone, A while ago I was getting "The NVM Checksum Is Not Valid" message and no ethernet access but I solved it following the instructions here: http://mynixworld.info/2012/12/05/e1000e-the-nvm-checksum-is-not-valid/ Today, my laptop booted with a new message: [ 3802.320950] pps_core: LinuxPPS API ver. 1 registered [ 3802.320957] pps_core: Software ver. 5.3.6 - Copyright 2005-2007 Rodolfo Giometti <gio...@li...> [ 3802.321360] PTP clock support registered [ 3802.322813] e1000e: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - 2.3.2-k [ 3802.322818] e1000e: Copyright(c) 1999 - 2014 Intel Corporation. [ 3802.323096] e1000e 0000:02:00.0: Interrupt Throttling Rate (ints/sec) set to dynamic conservative mode [ 3802.323143] e1000e 0000:02:00.0: irq 47 for MSI/MSI-X [ 3802.374615] e1000e 0000:02:00.0: Invalid MAC Address: 00:00:00:00:00:00 [ 3802.385246] e1000e: probe of 0000:02:00.0 failed with error -5 I took a look at /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and found: # PCI device 0x8086:0x109a (e1000e) SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:08:00:00:00:00", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0" # PCI device 0x8086:0x109a (e1000e) SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:40:00:00:00:00", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth1" Which shows that my MAC address has somehow changed once before it got stuck on "00:00:00:00:00:00". Is there any way to reset my MAC address so I can use ethernet again? My laptop is a Lenovo Thinkpad T60.
