82571EB gigabit on e1000 in 2.6.20-rc5

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a PCI-E pro/1000 MT Quad Port adapter, which works quite well under 2.6.19.2 but fails to see link under 2.6.20-rc5. Earlier today I reported this to [email protected], but thought I should get the word out in case someone else is testing this kernel on this nic chipset.

Due to changes between 2.6.19.2 and 2.6.20, Intel driver 7.3.20 will not compile for 2.6.20, nor will the 2.6.19.2 in-tree driver.

Error output:

From what I've been able to gather, other Intel Pro/1000 chipsets work fine in 2.6.20-rc5. If the e1000 guys need any assistance testing, I'll be more than happy to volunteer myself as a guinea pig for patches.
