My laptop's ethernet adapter is completely not showing up. The adapter shows up on the pci bus:
01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM57786 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe (rev 01)

but it does not show up as an adapter:

Googling around, it seems that the module for this device is tg3, but loading this module manually doesn't change anything.
If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. I'm willing to post the output for any diagnostic commands people might suggest

I had the same problem and found this Ubuntu bugtracker:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … ug/1182868
Since I am using the mainline kernel anyway to get my touchpad working I just applied the patch from the bugtracker before building the kernel and it worked!
