It's not clear to me when one uses the e1000 driver vs. the e1000e
one. I had a machine with PICe Ethernet NICs and it looked like it
required the e1000e driver. I had hoped to use the same e1000e driver
for another system with with a PCI NIC and a PCI-X NIC and it didn't
seem to select that driver for those NICs, even when I specifically
set via modprobe.conf for that e1000e driver to be used.

Which e1000* drivers are to be used in which case?

Thanks in advance.
