 Not necessarily, it may mean that the pci tables in lspci don't know
about it.

 I don't have any intel nics here, but have you tried the e1000 driver
in the kernel (CONFIG_E1000) ? (apparently, with documentation in
Documentation/networking/e1000.txt).  What often happens with nics is
that the manufacturer commissions or writes a driver, but later kernels
include a suitable driver.
