They work both (127.0.0.1 and 192.168.1.20 my desktop IP)

Not iptables installed.

ping to my laptop which works (192.168.0.22) fails.
In dmesg (very very long!) I didn't find anything
I could understand but this:
[   11.002756] sky2 0000:02:00.0: eth0: enabling interface

With ctrl+alt+F12 i canread this (interesting?)

(3 other lines like this with number 2, 3, 4)

in lsmod I don't have a module eth_module
