First of all, there are several Intel PRO/1000 PT adapters so what particular chipset is your adapter(s)? Please report the results of running lspci -vv (which will show what specific adapter and chipset you have). I know that most (if not all) PRO/1000 PT NICs are either 82571EB or 82572EI chipsets which are supported by the new E1000E driver. My suggestion is to download the latest E1000 and E1000E drivers from: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=42302 While the older e1000 did have support for your card, we split the driver into two sometime ago and support for your NIC was moved to the new E1000E driver. One of the benefits of the split is that you do not have to "enable multique" because it is already enabled in the driver. After updating both the E1000 (to version 8.0.6) and the E1000E (to version 0.4.1.12) drivers, you may need to update your system to use the E1000E driver instead of the E1000 driver for your PRO/1000 PT NIC. -- Cheers, Jeff ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ E1000-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/e1000-devel
