Hello Thomas, Could you provide the exact kernel version and kernel config you are using? Do you have Runtime Power Management enabled? Have you tried the latest driver from sourceforge.net (3.0.4.1)?

Some more info: I prevented e1000e from being autoloaded and booted with the cable unplugged. T1: Plug cable modprobe e1000e -> Works T2: modprobe e1000e plug cable -> Works not rmmod e1000e modprobe e1000e -> works not unplug cable rmmod e1000e modprobe e1000e -> works rmmod e1000e unplug cable modprobe e1000e plug cable -> Works not rmmod e1000e unplug cable plug cable modprobe e1000e -> Works not So if the module is loaded w/o the cable plugged it does not work. If I unplug before unloading the module and then plug in before loading the module again it works again.
