I'm not a sales guy, so I'm not sure what to tell you. There are NICs based on the i350 and i210 and those use the igb driver. Todd Fujinaka Software Application Engineer Networking Division (ND) Intel Corporation todd.fujin...@intel.com (503) 712-4565 -Original Message- From: Duc Dang [

Hi Fujinaka, As e1000e product family is nearly end of life. Does Intel have alternative options for 1Gb NIC? Regards, Duc Dang. On Mon, Apr 6, 2015 at 3:35 PM, Fujinaka, Todd wrote: > The only documentation I have is what's in the commit bdc125f7 in the kernel. > I'm assuming you've already l

Thanks, Fujinaka. The comment in E1000E driver (below) says that "on some parts there is a bug that acknowledges Host accesses later than it should". Do you know if 82752EI and 82754L have this problem or not? /** * __ew32_prepare - prepare to write to MAC CSR register on certain parts * @hw: p

Unfortunately I think the only suggestion I have is to stick to stable kernels. We don't have any ARM hardware available so we can't test this locally. I'm also deleting the laundry-list of cc's because I think I'm the only one on 82574L support on Linux at this time. Todd Fujinaka Software App
