 |
|
I've recently bought an Intel dual NIC card to replace the flaky onboard Realtek 8168 nic
| Code: | 02:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation 82571EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller [8086:105e] (rev 06)
02:00.1 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation 82571EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller [8086:105e] (rev 06) |
I've read from Intel website I had to install IGB driver. I tried that (5.0.6 and 5.0.5) and didn't work 
I added the barzog-overlay layman mirror and got IGB. Module seem to be ok but NIC is still not recognized...
| Code: | [I] net-misc/igb [1]
Available versions: (~)4.1.2 (~)4.2.16 (~)5.0.5 {KERNEL="linux"}

Altho module seem to be loaded

Hi, I don't know if you're still having trouble with this but I have that card and use the e1000e driver, rather than the igb.
I believe the the igb driver is for the dual port ET nics and the e1000e is for the dual port PT nics.
This intel page has all the details.
