** Description changed:

+ SRU Justification:
+ 
+ Impact: The Intel 82576 network card is not supported on Hardy but newer
+ motherboards are shipped with these.
+ 
+ Fix: Add the current Intel standalone igb driver under a new name and
+ with already supported PCI IDs removed to LUM. Both the old and new
+ driver can be used concurrently.
+ 
+ Testcase: Load old and new driver in parallel to check for concurrency.
+ Successfully tested on real hardware (see below)
+ 
+ ---
+ 
  Can support for the Intel 82576 be backported to the igb driver in
  Hardy?
  
  Some newer HP motherboards are shipping with the interface. [Note:
  almost *all* Nehalem-based motherboards ship with this interface]
  
  Attached information is from a machine using the interface but installed
  with Jaunty.
