Neither ASUS nor Intel customer support could suggest any solution. I have tried another ASUS laptop of the same model, and the error was the same, so this does not look like an accidental corruption. It looks like indeed there is a mismatch of the checksum of the non-volatile memory of I219-V. Just in case I tried using the latest version 3.3.4 of e1000e, but the error was the same: "The NVM Checksum Is Not Valid." However, e1000e is listed as supporting I218-V, and I've got a confirmation from e1000-devel mailing list that e1000e should support I219-V. I have searched for "official" Linux drivers, but none is listed as supporting I219-V. Under Windows 7 Ethernet port works fine: I can connect to the Internet.Īccording to Windows, I have Intel(R) Ethernet Connection I219-V. e1000e 0000:00:1f.6: The NVM Checksum Is Not Valid e1000e 0000:00:1f.6: Interrupt Throttling Rate (ints/sec) set to dynamic conservative mode The driver used is e1000e, it reports: $ dmesg | grep e1000e


I have a problem with an ASUSPRO B8430UA laptop: when I boot it with Ubuntu 16.04 (or NixOS 16.03) the Ethernet port does not work.
