RE: [gentoo-user] kernel support for: i211 - intel network driver
I agree, I have an i210 (same family as i211) here working on a Manjaro distribution with the igb driver.

I think the above commend only show anything if I compile it as a module, isn't it? If I compile it into the kernel, it will not show anything. Anyhow, what driver should I use. Yes, built-in drivers do not show up in lsmod. I have this motherboard and I'm using the IGB driver (Intel(R) 82575/82576), built-in. Have a look in dmesg and ifconfig, maybe the network adapter is recognized but your network configuration is wrong. -- Hervé Guillemet

Not sure about the X570, but I have a system with X540 network adapters and I need the " ixgbe " driver for that. It might also be one of the others in -> Device Drivers -> Network device support -> Ethernet driver support -> Intel devices -- Joost
