Description Naresh Sukhija 2008-10-07 09:58:55 UTC

Description of problem:
I tried installing F10Beta on T61 laptop, which has e1000 network card. While installation and during normal boot, the e1000 driver doesn't get detected as any ethX device. then I tried adding the kernel from Fedora 9 CD after which the e1000 driver worked fine

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Install F10Beta on T61 laptop (or any other PC/laptop with Intel gigabit adapter)


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install F10Beta on T61 laptop (or any other PC/laptop with Intel gigabit adapter)
2. Run ifconfig -a
3. ethX device corresponding to e1000 is not listed
  
Actual results:
ethX device corresponding to e1000 is not listed in ifconfig output

Expected results:
ethX device corresponding to e1000 should be listed in ifconfig output

The e1000e driver was removed from the beta because it was corrupting the adapter.
It's back in the latest rawhide kernels.
