[ubuntu-in] Ethernet not working on Dell Inspiron 14R 4010

[Ramnarayan.K]

Hi

Am helping a friend install Ubuntu on his new dell 14r 4010 SRS laptop

The basic install has happened well , no issues

The only issue is ethernet is not working.

Funnily there is wirless broadcom driver that needs to be installed
for wifi to work - and after installation wifi works but ethernet
continues to not work.

Have not found any link (via googling) to indicate how to recitify the
ethernet not working.

The ethernet works on the windows side and on other Linux machines
(like the one i am typing from)

thanks
