I was wondering if someone could help me with an odd problem...
I have a Lenovo ThinkCentre M92P Desktop PC, which has an Intel Onboard LAN Card that doesn't want to initialize and I don't know what the hell is the problem with it...
I'll post some of my configs:

Ubuntu version:
Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
In BIOS, the Oboard LAN is enabled and LAN Booting is Disabled.
All updates are already performed. System up-to-date. LAN Card not recognized by driver, I assume. Something has to do with that "probe of 0000:00:19.0 failed with error -2" which I don't know what it means.
I was thinking about installing Intel's drivers from their website but this seems a little too much to do. The drivers should be naturally integrated in the kernel. If I install manual drivers, then this means that everytime I get a kernel update I must manually reinstall drivers ? This sucks...
If anyone can lend a helping hand, it would be very appreciated... :-)
Thanks !
I had the same issue, the only difference is that I had a code
-5
e1000e: probe failed with error -5
I have Asrock B360 with Gigabit intel ethernet adapter (I219-V). BIOS update - did not help at all. So what I did: I reset BIOS, removed motherboard battery plug for a while then put it back - started the system and no way!
eth0
interface now is back!
