As some of you allready might know, not all E1000 cards from Intel works very good with Linux or ASL in this case. I have an 1U Intel Server with 2 Dual E1000 Networks cards. This seems to work fine, until I begin to plugin more than 1 network wire. Communication with my Cisco routers does not work, communication with other hosts in the network gives a packet loss of 90-95% !!! This is most annoying and Astaro wont help me cause this hardware is not on theyr support list, something that is kindof ok with me. The question is then, should I compile my own ? If I where to compile my own I need the kernels sources and a proper compiler enviorment, pluspack ?.... does not exist for Version 5.0xxx which I am currently running.
If someone would volantair to compile a fresh driver from Intel for me or give me some hints of other possible solutions I would be very greatfull.
My only alternative right now is to install some other nics, which really is NO alternative !!
Have a nice weekend,
best regards Morten
