Here's a note that may be relevant: Intel's document, "Intel® 82567 Gigabit Ethernet Controller Specification Update and Sighting Information," ( http://download.intel.com/design/network/specupdt/82567_su.pdf ) states the following:
3. 82567-LM Device ID for Montevina Platform Changed from 10BE to 10F5. Description: The Montevina 82567-LM Device ID (10BE) was incorrectly included with in-box drivers that are installed as part of Windows* Vista* Service Pack 1. Since support for this device was not fully developed for the in-box driver, the driver does not load correctly and presents the user with an error [Code 10 – driver could not start the device]. To prevent the user from having the Code 10 error, the Device ID was changed to 10F5. For complete functionality with the new Device ID, the following are required to be updated to the following versions: • Device Driver: Mount Angel 1 • NVM image: Revision 1.83 released in the 82567 SVK version 1.6 • IBA version: Released in Mount Angel 1 • Tools: 82567 SVK version 1.6 It's possible, and likely, that the e1000e driver currently contains only the new device ID; for compatibility reasons, it does seem like a good idea to add a listing for the old device ID, to ensure it works on non-updated (as in BIOS update) systems. -- network driver not loaded for PCI ID 8086:10be https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/221164 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
