Public bug reported:

My Intel motherboard has onboard intel GBE. I am also using an intel pro
1000 PT card. Both should be using the e1000e driver, but the latter
loads the e1000 module by default
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/222831), so lsmod
shows both the e1000 and e1000e modules loaded on a fresh boot.

I added a line "blacklist e1000" to the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist,
but after a reboot e1000 is loaded again for the pro 1000 pt. This can
be corrected by doing "rmmod e1000e && rmmod e1000 && modprobe e1000e &&
/etc/init.d/networking restart". I'm not sure if it's necessary to
restart the networking but it works.
