Hi

You need to install the Linux Kernel from Roboard in order to enable LAN.

Please see the "Download" section on the Roboard website : http://www.roboard.com

The lan network driver is present in the kernel sources from kernel.org. But it is not built in the ubuntu default kernel.
Code: Select all
$ grep CONFIG_R6040 /boot/config-2.6.38-10-generic
# CONFIG_R6040 is not set


As already said by PedroR, you have to use the kernel from roboard.

An other solution would be to build your own kernel with lan driver selected in kernel configuration. ;)
