At that point I’d rather use a half functioning Linux phone than a locked down one. Hopefully stuff like Framework and Fairphone will follow through on making parts available for real old devices.

Nice! Not sure how you ended up with it saying “UP” on your interface, but if it works it works

enx0 is your wifi, nothing wrong there. Look for enp0 instead, that’s your ethernet.

Grepping for the interface may not be what you need to do, if NetworkManager is not bringing your ethernet up due to a different issue, so you’ll want to reboot and look at the logs again starting from the latest restart (it’ll mark that with a date/time stamp in the logs).

From what I can see on my phone, NetworkManager is enabled but not running. What happens if you do sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager or just do a reboot? If it stays “loaded” instead of “running” after, check the logs with journalctl -xeu NetworkManager (pgup and pgdown to scroll)
