Most probably the driver is simply too old. Even the 2.6.22 kernel currently in Sid only has version 7.3.20-k2 of the e1000 module. You will likely have to compile version 7.6.5, which is available on Intel's website: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?strState=LIVE&ProductID=983&DwnldID=9180&lang=eng The first thing that you need is the linux-headers package for your currently running kernel. Then you can try to follow the instructions given by Intel (and tell us if things don't work out). -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
