Hi Emil,

Thanks for your reply. By "upstream" do you mean "from Intel"? Right
now I'm building and installing igb 5.0.5 from Intel so that I can use
the RSS functionality at boot via modprobe configuration. Is that what
you're suggesting I would do with the version from e1000.sf.net?

Thanks again.
Andy
