Hi, I updated to kernel 2.6.29.1 (from 2.6.22) yesterday and my Intel 82566MM fails to work now (eth0 is not recognized). First, I noticed that the new kernel uses e1000e for this controller rather than e1000, but I get the following in dmesg:
e1000e: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - 0.3.3.3-k6 e1000e: Copyright (c) 1999-2008 Intel Corporation. e1000e 0000:00:19.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 20 (level, low) -> IRQ 20 e1000e 0000:00:19.0: setting latency timer to 64 0000:00:19.0: 0000:00:19.0: Failed to initialize MSI interrupts. Falling back to legacy interrupts. 0000:00:19.0: 0000:00:19.0: Invalid MAC Address: 00:00:00:00:00:00 e1000e 0000:00:19.0: PCI INT A disabled e1000e: probe of 0000:00:19.0 failed with error -5 I searched for this issue, and came up with similar problems with e1000e but they involved checksum errors etc. I couldn't find any solution for the above. I tried with CONFIG_PCI_MSI enabled but then I get the following messages and eth0 is still not recognized. e1000e: Unknown symbol pci_disable_msi e1000e: Unknown symbol pci_enable_msi e1000e: Unknown symbol pci_enable_msix e1000e: Unknown symbol pci_disable_msi I'm using a Thinkpad T61p, and following is the ouput from lspci: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile Memory Controller Hub (rev 0c) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile PCI Express Root Port (rev 0c) 00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82566MM Gigabit Network Connection (rev 03) 00:1a.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Contoller #4 (rev 03) 00:1a.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #5 (rev 03) 00:1a.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller #2 (rev 03) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 1 (rev 03) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 2 (rev 03) 00:1c.2 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 3 (rev 03) 00:1c.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 4 (rev 03) 00:1c.4 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 5 (rev 03) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #1 (rev 03) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #2 (rev 03) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #3 (rev 03) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller #1 (rev 03) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev f3) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile LPC Interface Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation Mobile IDE Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation Mobile SATA AHCI Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) SMBus Controller (rev 03) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Unknown device 040c (rev a1) 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02) 05:00.0 Mass storage controller: Silicon Image, Inc.

Please let me know if there is a fix for this, or if you need more information.
